Simulation on the Flow Field of Centrifugal Pump Based on Fluent

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the software Fluent was employed and the two-dimensional flow fields, such as flow distribution, velocity distribution, pressure distribution, turbulent kinetic energy distribution are obtained. The results show that the flow, velocity, pressure and turbulent kinetic energy distribution are significantly different and asymmetric. The results have referenced significance for design and analysis of the Centrifugal Pump.
