Abstract:
In this we proposes a Centrifugal pump design is a most common pump used in industries agriculture and domestic applications. Its impeller design demands a detailed understanding of the internal flow at rated and part load operating conditions. For the cost – effective design of pumps it is very crucial to predict their performance in advance before manufacturing them which requires understanding of the flow behavior in different parts of the pump. In this paper an impeller of a centrifugal pump is designed and modeled in 3D modeling software Pro/Engineer. The present model has 5 blades and angle of blade is 200 in this thesis the number blades are chnaged to 6 and 7 and angle od blades is changed to 300 and 500. Materials used are steel and aluminum. Structural analysis frequency analysis and CFD analysis are performed. The optimzation of the impeller design is done by observing the results obtained from the analysis performed. The results considered are stress frequency velocity pressure flow rates.Analysis is done in Ansys.
