Description
Summary:This work deals with improvements of the calculation and design methods of rotodynamic pump volutes taking into account viscous liquid flow. The research was performed with torque flow pump of "Turo" type. The analytical solution for the problem within the one-dimensional model of viscous liquid allowed to obtain a viscous liquid flow pattern in the volute. The law of velocity variation of viscous liquid flowing through the volute was obtained. There are numerical solutions of the problem concerning of viscous liquid flow in the pump with volute designed for traditional model of non viscous and viscous fluid. The research results are given by means of head-capacity and power input curves. To estimate the results of numerical study the tests were performed on the test stand.
