摘要: 基于RNG k-ε湍流模型和Zwart-Gerber-Belamri空化模型,对离心泵内部非空化和空化工况下的非定常流动特性进行数值模拟,分析空化模型中凝结项经验系数对数值模拟结果的影响,并根据试验结果修正离心泵空化流动数值模拟中凝结项经验系数;数值模拟得到的离心泵扬程随有效空化余量的变化曲线与试验结果吻合较好,验证数值计算模型和方法的准确性和可靠性。数值模拟结果表明:离心泵非定常流动中,非空化、临界空化和充分发展空化工况下,蜗壳内监测点的压力脉动主频均为叶片通过频率;空化对离心泵蜗壳内压力脉动的影响较大,非空化时压力脉动最大幅值在蜗舌处,空化时压力脉动最大幅值在第1断面附近,其原因是离心泵出现空化时第1断面处旋涡强度增强,且随时间变化剧烈,对流动产生强烈扰动。

Abstract: The unsteady flow in a centrifugal pump is numerically simulated by using the RNG k-ε turbulence model and the Zwart-Gerber-Belamri cavitation model. The influence of condensation coefficient of the cavitation model on numerical simulation is analyzed. According to the experimental result, the value of condensation coefficient is modified. The calculated variation of pump head with the available net positive suction head is in good agreement with the experimental data, so the accuracy and reliability of the numerical modal and method are verified. The results demonstrate that the dominant frequencies of pressure fluctuation in the volute at operating conditions of non-cavitation and cavitation are both the blade pass frequency. The cavitation has great influence on pressure fluctuation in volute. The maximum amplitudes of pressure fluctuation appear at the tongue of the volute and the first section of the volute for non-cavitation and cavitation conditions, respectively. It is caused by the strength of vortex enhances at cavitation condition and changing with time, which disturbs the flow in the first section.
