PUMP-FLO v10.0

Description

Centrifugal Pump Design: Centrifugal pumps use a rotating impeller to swirl and increase the energy of the incoming fluid and then discharge it radially at the outer radius of the impeller. Advantages: Ability to pump large volumes of fluid. Application: Fluid transfer and pumping. PumpLinx: Solve Flows, Pressures, Cavitation, and Loads: Discriminators: Models cavitation Accurate tip leakage Superior treatment of rotating-stationary interfaces Ease-of-use Fast turn-around Design Issues/Benefits: Impeller design Inlet/exit duct design Tip leakage reduction Reduce blade loads Reduce Cavitation effects on efficiency and pump life
