The Influence of Wrap Angle of Blade on the Internal Flow Field and Hydraulic Performance of Double Suction Pump

In order to study the influence rule of wrap angle of blade on the internal flow field and hydraulic performance of double suction pump, 5 kinds of wrap angles of blade with 100°, 110°, 120°, 130° and 140° are designed in this paper. The turbulence model and the grid type are analyzed, the performance of ES350-575 double suction pump is obtained by employ the software CFX. The static pressure and velocity distributions in the cross-section are analyzed. Therefore, the optimal model is obtained, and the relevant external characteristic test is conducted. The result shows that the reasonable increase of the wrap angle of blade can enhance the performance of the pump effectively, which can improve the static pressure and velocity distributions of the internal flow field.
