| Research Abstract |
Two-dimensional and three-dimensional, unsteady Reynolds-averaged navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with standard k-e turbulence models were solved within a whole stage of a diffuser pump to investigate pressure fluctuations due to interaction between impeller and diffuser vanes. The arbitrary sliding mesh was employed for the full solution of transient flow due to the interaction between components without approximating the blade count ratio of impeller to diffuser. In addition, two-dimensional vorticity method was applied to the whole stage of diffuser pump. The unsteady numerical results were compared with ones calculated by singularity method and experimental data. As a result of the present study, the Navier-Stokes code with the k-e model as well as vorticity method is found to be capable of predicting pressure fluctuations in the diffuser. Further, extensive numerical studies identified sources contributing to the pressure fluctuations in the diffuser, and help understand the mechanism of impeller-diffuser interactions in the diffuser pump.
