Study of the Hydraulic Performances of Two Inducers in Water—CO2 Mixture—Toward Performance Improvement With Suppression of Prerotation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The inducers increase the pressure available at the inlet of the impellers of centrifugal pumps. This technological solution may induce instabilities, such as prerotating flow at partial flow rates. The scientific literature ...
Experimental Comparison of Hydrodynamic Behavior Under Partial Flowrates and Cavitation in Three Configurations of a Centrifugal Pump With Inducer and Impeller
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study aims at experimentally investigating the hydrodynamic behavior of a centrifugal pump, both with and without cavitation. The pump consists of an axial inducer, a centrifugal impeller, and a volute. Three assembly ...
Experimental Study of the Hydraulic Performances of Two Three-Bladed Inducers in Water, Water With Dissolved CO2, and Jet Fuel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Inducers in centrifugal pumps are generally placed upstream to increase the pressure before the impeller and prevent cavitation occurrence. Their general goal is to obtain a positive impact on the performances of a pump ...
