Through numerical simulations, this work analyzes the unsteady pressure pulsation characteristics in new type of dishwasher pump with double tongue volute and single tongue volute, under volute static and rotation conditions. Likewise, the performance tests were also carried out to verify the numerical results. Multiple monitoring points were set at the various positions of new type dishwasher pump to collect the pressure pulsation signals, and the relevant frequency signals were obtained via Fast Fourier Transform, to analyze the influence of volute tongue and its passive speed on the pump performance. The results reveal that when the double tongue volute is stationary, the pressure pulsation amplitudes increase from the impeller inlet to the impeller outlet. Under the influence of shedding vortex, the pressure pulsation in the lateral region of tongue becomes disorganized, and the main frequency of pressure pulsation changes from blade frequency to shaft frequency. In addition, compared with the static volute, double tongue volute can effectively guide the water flow out of the tongue during the rotation process, thus ensuring good periodicity for pressure pulsation in the tongue region. Accordingly, a volute reference scheme with passive rotation speed is proposed in this study, which can effectively improve the pressure pulsation at tongue position, and provides a new idea for rotor-stator interference to guide the innovation of dishwasher.

A pressure pulsation experiment of a dishwasher pump with a passive rotation double-tongue volute was carried out and compared with the pressure pulsation of a single-tongue volute and a static double-tongue volute. The pressure pulsation of the three volute models was compared and analyzed from two aspects of different impeller speeds and different monitoring points. The frequency domain and time–frequency domain of pressure pulsation were obtained by a Fourier transform and short-time Fourier transform, respectively. The results showed that the average pressure of each monitoring point on the rotating double-tongue volute was the smallest and that on the single-tongue volute was the largest. When the impeller rotates at 3000 rpm, there were eight peaks and valleys in the pressure pulsation time domain curve of the single-tongue volute, while the double-tongue volute was twice that of the single-tongue volute. Under different impeller speeds, the changing trends of pressure pulsation time and frequency domain curves of static and rotating double-tongue volutes at monitoring point p1 are basically the same. Therefore, a volute reference scheme with passive rotation speed is proposed in this study, which can effectively improve the flow pattern and reduce pressure inside the dishwasher pump, and also provide a new idea for rotor–rotor interference to guide the innovation of dishwashers.

Abstract In this paper, the effects of modifying the blade pressure side on unsteady pressure pulsation and flow structures in a low specific speed centrifugal pump are carried out by experimental and CFD. Seven monitor points are arranged in the circumferential direction of the impeller outlet to capture the pressure signals in the volute at the flow rate of 0.2-1.6Qd. Results show that blade PS modification introduced here can significantly alleviate the amplitude of pressure pulsation at blade passing frequency in all concerned operation conditions. The volute domain is replaced by an even outlet region for CFD analysis to study the effects on internal flow field. The SST turbulence model is adopted for steady-state simulation while the DDES based on the SST approach is adopted for transient simulation. Results show that local velocity fluctuation is the dominant reason for pressure pulsation in the volute. After PS modification, the relative velocity distribution at impeller outlet is more uniform and the intensity of shedding vortex at the blade trailing edge decreases significantly. The change of internal flow structure improves the uniformity of circumferential velocity distribution at downstream of impeller outlet, which leads to the decrease of pressure fluctuation amplitude in the volute. Meanwhile, the Local Euler Head distribution and the blade loading of PS are presented and compared. Results show that the reduction of pressure pulsation attributes to the more uniform energy distribution at impeller outlet which is achieved by actively unloading the PS of the modified blades.

Abstract In this study, three impellers with different blade pressure side (PS) profiles were designed and the influence on the hydraulic and dynamic performance of a low specific speed centrifugal pump was investigated by numerical simulation and experimental research. The result shows that blade PS modification introduced in this study can efficiently alleviate the unsteady pressure pulsation of pump. In order to study the effects of blade modification on the internal flow filed, the volute domain was replaced by an even outlet region for CFD analysis. Relative velocity distribution was extracted to visualize the three-dimensional (3-D) flow characteristics at the impeller outlet. The result shows that the flow at impeller outlet presents a typical jet-wake structure which is significantly suppressed after the blade modification. The suppression of jet-wake structure, which is attributed to the redistribution of pressure and velocity in the impeller caused by the change of blade work capacity can directly reduce the intensity of pressure pulsation in the volute by increasing the velocity uniformity at impeller outlet. Given that the existence of jet-wake flow results in large mixing loss and velocity deviation at the impeller outlet, entropy generation rate and slip velocity calculation were introduced here to measure the extent of jet-wake configuration. Result shows that both indicators introduced here can be used to quantify the extent of the wake-jet structure at impeller outlet, and thus, indirectly predict the strength of unsteady pressure pulsation in pump volute.

The general characteristics of planetary systems are described. Well-known heat sources of evolution are considered. A new type of heat source, variations of kinematic parameters in a dynamical system, is proposed. The inconsistency of the perovskite-post-perovskite heat model is proved. Calculations of inertia moments relative to the D boundary on the Earth are given. The 9 times difference allows us to claim that the sliding of the upper layers at the Earth's rotation speed variations emit heat by viscous friction.This heat is the basis of mantle convection and lithospheric plate tectonics.

Effects of the staggered blades on unsteady pressure pulsations of a centrifugal pump with a specific speed ns=147 are investigated by the numerical simulation method. The obtained results are compared with the original blades. To clarify the resulting effects, eight monitoring points are used to extract pressure signals at three typical working conditions, and component at the blade passing frequency fBPF is emphasized. Results show that the pump efficiency and head will be reduced by the staggered blades, and at the nominal flow rate, the reduction is about 1.5% from comparison with the original blades. For all the eight points, the staggered blades contribute to the reduction of pressure amplitudes at fBPF when the pump works at three flow rates. The averaged reduction is 15.5% at the nominal flow rate. However, the negative effect on the second harmonic of fBPF will be caused by the staggered blades, and the corresponding pressure amplitude will increase at 2fBPF. It means that the pressure pulsation energy will be redistributed among the discrete components in pressure spectrum by the staggered blades. From the TKE distribution, it is found that the TKE values on the blade pressure side will be significantly affected by the staggered blades.

This paper presents an investigation of external flow characteristics and pressure fluctuation of a submersible tubular pumping system by using a combination of numerical simulation and experimental methods. The steady numerical simulation is used to predicted the hydraulic performance of the pumping system, and the unsteady calculation is adopted to simulate the pressure fluctuation in different components of a submersible tubular pumping system. A test bench for a model test and pressure pulsation measurement is built to validate the numerical simulation. The results show that the performance curves of the calculation and experiment are in agreement with each other, especially in the high efficiency area, and the deviation is minor under small discharge and large discharge conditions. The pressure pulsation distributions of different flow components, such as the impeller outlet, middle of the guide vane, and guide vane outlet and bulb unit, are basically the same as the measurement data. For the monitoring points on the impeller and the wall of the guide vane especially, the main frequency and its amplitude matching degree are higher, while the pressure pulsation values on the wall of the bulb unit are quite different. The blade passing frequency and its multiples are important parameters for analysis of pressure pulsation; the strongest pressure fluctuation intensity appears in the impeller outlet, which is mainly caused by the rotor–stator interaction. The farther the measuring point from the impeller, the less the pressure pulsation is affected by the blade frequency. The frequency amplitudes decrease from the impeller exit to the bulb unit.

This paper presents a new type of Global Positioning System/Inertial Navigation System (GPS/INS) providing higher navigation accuracy under large initial heading error. The mechanization introduced is applicable to low cost GPS/INS systems and enhances the performance when the heading error is large. The proposed approach has the capability to decrease large heading errors very quickly and can start the strapdown navigation computations under poor heading accuracy without any special alignment procedure. Although the design is applicable to land, sea and aerial vehicles, a land vehicle is used for the performance tests. The test is conducted around a closed path and the proposed system is compared to a GPS/INS system based on small attitude error assumption. The performance of both systems is given in this paper.

Intense pressure pulsation, resulted from the flow structure shedding from the blade trailing edge and its interaction with the volute tongue and the casing, is detrimental to the stable operation of centrifugal pumps. In the present study, unsteady pressure pulsation signals at different positions of the volute casing are extracted using high response pressure transducers at flow rate of 0–1.55ΦN. Emphasis is laid upon the influence of measuring position and operating condition on pressure pulsation characteristics, and components at the blade passing frequency fBPF and root-mean-square (RMS) values in 0–20.66fn frequency band are mainly analyzed. Results clearly show that the predominant components in pressure spectra always locate at fBPF. The varying trends versus flow rate of components at fBPF differ significantly for different points, and it is considered to be associated with the corresponding flow structures at particular positions of the volute casing. At the near-tongue region, high pressure amplitudes occur at the position of θ = 36 deg, namely the point at the after tongue region. For different measuring points, angular distributions of amplitudes at fBPF and RMS values in 0–20.66fn frequency band are not consistent and affected significantly by the pump operating conditions.
