Abstract

In order to determine the optimal working efficiency of mixed flow pumps as turbine (MF-PAT) under a design condition of 10m3kw, this study takes the number of blades, blade wrap angle, impeller outer diameter, and impeller inlet width as design variables. Based on the center combination design method, experimental scheme design is carried out, and the head, shaft power, and efficiency of the turbine are used as evaluation indicators. A response surface model is constructed for optimization analysis, and the optimal geometric parameter combination of the impeller for MF-PAT is determined. For MF-PAT with forward-curved blade impeller in this paper, the optimal parameter combination is recommended as blade number Z = 6, blade wrap angle α = 47°, impeller outer diameter D2 = 140 mm and impeller inlet width b2 = 34 mm. The results show that compared with the original scheme, its efficiency has increased by 7.8 %. The established response surface model can reflect the relationship between evaluation indicators and design variables, and can be used for optimizing the geometric parameters of MF-PAT impellers. It can effectively enhance the blade's constraint ability on liquid flow, reduce hydraulic losses, and improve the performance of MF-PAT. Apply the ns-ds methodology for this and future mixed flow optimized pumps as turbines.
