A hybrid two-phase flow solver is proposed, based on an Euler?Euler two-fluid model with continuous blending of a Volume-of-Fluid method when phase interfaces of coherent gas pockets are to be resolved. In a preceding study on a two-dimensional bladed re...

Predicting pump performance and ensuring operational reliability under two-phase conditions is a major goal of three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of liquid/gas radial centrifugal pump flows. Hence, 3D CFD methods are incre...

To depict the pump power characteristics of radial centrifugal pumps, a physical model was developed. The model relies on established empirical equations. To parameterize the model for specific pumps, physically interpretable tuning factors were integrat...

Centrifugal pumps are widely used in the oil and mining industries. In contrast to water pumps, the centrifugal pumps in the oil and mining industries are used for the transportation of drilling fluid, which is typically non-Newtonian fluid. Drilling flu...

In this paper, the gas-liquid flow is comprehensively analyzed under different inlet gas void fractions, and the effect of tip leakage vortex (TLV) on the gas flow pattern in multiphase pumps is revealed. The results show that the gas flow pattern in an ...

Regenerative pumps are characterized by a low specific speed that place them between rotary positive displacement pumps and purely radial centrifugal pumps. They are interesting for many industrial applications since, for a given flow rate and a specifie...

In radial pumps and turbines, the centrifugal through-flow in both the front and the back chambers is quite common. It strongly impacts the core swirl ratio, pressure distribution, axial thrust and frictional torque. In order to investigate these relatio...
