ABSTRACT: Pumps are used in the process of transferrin fluids from one place to other and these pumps have a vital role in the domestic and industrial areas. This project deals with the application and need of Structural analysis in the pump industries. For this purpose, we have made a desin and analysis of impeller used in Domestic Open well Radial flow water pumps. The impeller selected is of enclosed type, which is commonly used in domestic water pumps. In this project we have desined an impeller for a domestic need usin formulas formulated by Dr. K.M Srinivasan, in the book Rotodynamic Pumps. The impeller is modeled usin CAD software and analyzed usin Ansys packae. The Ansys output is cross checked with desired requirements, so as to state the accuracy and need of Ansys analysis. In this study, the performance of impellers with the same outlet diameter havin different blade numbers for centrifual pumps is thorouhly evaluated The impeller outlet diameter, the blade anle and the blade numbers are the most critical parameters which affect the performance of centrifual pumps. The model pump has a desin rotation speed of 4000rpm and an impeller with 4,,8 & 12 numbers of blades has been considered. The inner flow fields and characteristics of centrifual pump with different blade number are simulated and predicted by usin Ansys software. The simulation is steady desin pressure to take into account the impeller. For each impeller, static pressure distribution, total pressure distribution and the chanes in head as well as efficiencies of centrifual pump are discussed. With the increase of blade number and Type of blade like forward, backward and radial blades types also desin. By checkin material variation and find out best material for best desin type will be finalized.

2 THEORY: In this chapter the relevant physics of a pump will be described, and methods to calculate the performance will be iven. A brief introduction to methods for measurin the velocity of a fluid will also be iven. 2.1 PUMP THEORY: VELOCITY TRIANGLES: In turbo machinery the motion of the fluid needs to be specified accordin to the rotational motion of the impeller. The absolute velocity c can be rearded as the velocity relative to a stationary part, such as the housin or the diffuser. This can be seen as the sum of two velocities: the peripheral velocity of the impeller u, and the fluid velocity relative to the impellers w. c = u + w (2.1) When these velocities are plotted, they form a velocity paralleloram or a velocity trianle. The velocities are normally iven subscript 1 or 2, where 1 corresponds to impeller inlet, and 2 to impeller outlet. The subscripts 3 and 4 corresponds to the inlet and outlet of the diffuser, while 5 and 6 correspond to the inlet and outlet of the return channels of multistae pumps. The velocity parallelorams can be seen in Fiure 2.1. Fiure 2.2 shows how these can be rearraned in order to form velocity trianles that show the relation between the relative and absolute velocities. α and β represent the anles of the absolute and relative velocities at the inlet and outlet of the impeller. When dealin with an axial inlet we usually assume zero swirl, meanin α 1 = 90. In multistae pumps this is difficult to obtain because of disturbances in the flow caused by the previous stae. Fiure 2.1: Velocity diaram in an impeller stae Fiure 2.2: Velocity trianles Fiure 2.3: Inlet dimensions Accordin to theory, the anle at the outlet, β 2, alins with the camber anle of the impeller. In reality this anle deviates due to slip and blade blockae, as we shall see later. The peripheral velocity u may easily be calculated by knowin the rotational speed n of the impeller, by the followin relation: u = πd n (2.2) 60 in which d is the diameter where the velocity is evaluated. The absolute velocity 'c' can be decomposed into meridional and peripheral components with subscripts m and u. With zero swirl at the inlet c u1 is neliible, and c m1 = c 1. By takin into account conservation of mass, the relation between c m1 and c m2 can be found. C m2 = Q La = C A m1 = A 1 (2.3) 2 A 2 In Equation (2.3), Q La is the volume flow passed throuh the impeller, A 1 is the area at the inlet and A 2 is the outlet area of the impeller. The areas are calculated from equations (2.4) and (2.5), where d n is the hub diameter as seen in Fiure 2.3, d 1 is the impeller eye diameter, d 2 is the diameter at the outlet and b 2 is the heiht of the outlet of the impeller. Inlet area: A 1 = π 4 d 1 2 -d n 2 (2.4) Outlet area: A 2= π d 2 b 2 (2.5) The calculation of c u2 is a bit more difficult due to slip, and will be discussed further in subsection Pae 108

3 This basic knowlede of velocity trianles will be used throuhout the followin sections, and they are important parameters when desinin the diffusin elements SPECIFIC SPEED: In order to classify pumps into different cateories, the specific speed was first introduced by Camerer in 1914 and further developed by Stepanoff in 1948 n q = n Q La,opt 0.75 (2.6) H opt When calculatin the specific speed with Equation (2.6) H opt is the head. The sub-script opt indicates that they are evaluated at the best efficiency point of the pump, also called BEP. By calculatin the specific speed it is possible to classify which kind of pump would be suitable for different applications, and it is also possible to compare pumps in different operatin conditions. n q is not dimensionless, but is a number used for classifications in the same way as the Reynolds number EULER'S EQUATION, THEORETICAL HEAD By combinin Newton s 2.law and the law of momentum, Euler s equation can be obtained in order to calculate the theoretical head of the pump. H th = U 2C U 2 U 1 C U 1 (2.7) In a pump with an axial inlet c u1 is neliible and Euler s equation reduces to: H th = U 2C U 2 (2.8) To obtain this theoretical head we assume an infinitely amount of infinitely thin blades. Reducin the number of blades reduces the friction area in the pump, but also increases the pressure differences between the suction side and pressure side of the blades. When this difference rows we experience a flow pattern on the trailin ede of the blade called slip. This will be further discussed in the followin section SLIP: To fully understand what happens at the trailin ede of the blades, it is necessary to know a bit about what oes on within the impeller. The impeller is a curved channel in constant movement in which the blades act upon the fluid to create an increased velocity and pressure. This leads to the fact that the pressure will be hiher at the pressure side than at the suction side of the blades. Since the pressure distribution correlates with the velocities, there must be a difference in the velocity of the fluid at these two surfaces. The flow is therefore not able to follow the blade exactly, and deviates from shape of the blade. When the flow passes the trailin ede, the pressure difference immediately vanishes and the streamlines curve around the trailin ede to satisfy the outlet conditions. Slip is an important desin parameter when desinin pumps, and it has a sinificant influence when computin head and flow properties. Althouh slip is a well known phenomena, exact calculations of the process can only be done by testin. In Fiure 2.5 the effect of the slip on the outlet anle β2 can be seen. The Fiure uses a slihtly different notation, but the difference in outlet anle δ between the flow and the blade anle β 2B can clearly be seen, as well as the chaned peripheral component of the absolute velocity c u2. Gettin a complete knowlede of the effects of slip is a difficult operation, with several uncertainties. Nevertheless it is important to take the slip into account when desinin centrifual pumps, and the followin approaches ive us ood approximations in desin operations. Slip calculation Fiure 2.5 introduces the slip coefficient γ. The slip coefficient is defined by Gülich and Tuzson as: C u2 - C u2 = (1-γ) u 2 ( 2.9) In Equation (2.9) c u2 represents the peripheral component of the absolute velocity with infinite number of blades. c u2 is the peripheral component of the real velocity, takin slip into account. Pae 109

4 The most accurate values which exist for the slip coefficient were calculated by Busemann in 1928, and later reviewed and adjusted by Wiesner in Wiesner derived the followin expression for calculatin slip coefficient with a standard deviation of about ±4%: γ = f 1 1 sin β 2B 0.70 (2.10) Z La In Equation (2.10) β 2B is the blade anle at the outlet and z La is the number of impeller blades. The factor f 1 is for radial impellers set to With γ = 1 there is no slip. This equation is valid for a limited rane of mean diameter ratios, iven by the followin expression: ε lim = exp 8.16 sin β 2B (2.11) Z La d The limit is defined as 1m = ε d lim, where the 2m subscript m represents a mean streamline. The mean streamline corresponds to the streamline endin on the d eometric mean diameter at the outlet 1m > ε d lim, 2m the riht side of the equation (2.10) can be multiplied by the factor kw, calculated by the followin equation k w = 1 d 1m d 2m ε lim 1 ε lim 3 (2.12) PFLEIDERER S CORRECTION Another approach, presented by Stepanoff and by Lazarkiewicz and Troskolanski, is to use Pfleiderer s correction factor Cp to calculate the theoretical head with a finite number of blades directly. The relation is iven in Impeller Pumps as: H th = 1 1+C p H th (2.13) The correction factor is by Pfleiderer defined by the semi-empirical formula [2, p. 94] C p = 2 ψ 1 Z La 1 r 1m r2m 2 (2.14) in which z La is the number of impeller blades, r 1m and r 2m are the inner and outer mean radius, while ψ can be calculated from the followin formula: s, while ψ can be calculated from the followin formula: r ψ = f 1 + sin β2b 1m (2.15) r 2m where f is chosen between 1.0 and 1.2. The Pfleiderer correction thus ives a simple way to calculate the reduced head due to slip, but the two methods ive slihtly different results, as we shall see later IMPELLER OUTLET VELOCITIES: To accurately calculate the outlet velocities from the impeller, it is important to obtain as thorouh information about the flow as possible. This includes slip, blade profile, trailin ede profile, and of course the main parameters such as flow, head, rotational speed and so on. To calculate the velocity trianle at the outlet, the precedin knowlede is used combined with eometry. The meridional component of the absolute velocity c m2 is calculated with Equation (2.3), while the peripheral component 'c u2' can be found from eometry in Fiure 2.5: C u2 = γu 2 C m 2 tan β 2B (2.16) These values represent the velocities at the mean streamlines. They can also be calculated at the inner and outer streamlines, which is recommended in detailed desin. RADIAL PUMP IMPELLER DESIGN: Desin a rotor(impeller) of a radial water pump for the followin iven values Q = 95 lpm =1.583 lps H = 24 m n = 2880 rpm Power: 1hp = 746W Pipe size: 25 X 25 mm The Specific speed for the pump is calculated from the followin formula for the iven values Pae 110

The specific speed is in the radial type pump rane The shaft Power is iven as: P = ρqh η o The overall efficiency η o for a sinle stae, sinle entry, radial pump can be read from the fiure below to be η o = The power pump becomes, P = = 1.84hp The hub diameter, d h = 1.1 to 1.3 d s d h = 1.2d s = 50mm The eye diameter (D1) can be calculated by assumin inlet number. The radial velocity at the inlet is iven by: C om = ε 2Y The volume flow rate at the suction end is iven by: ϱ π = C om D d 2 h, where ϱ = ϱ η V Calculatin for the eye diameter, D 1 = 4ϱ π C om η V + d h 2 (Source: Centrifual Pumps, Johann Friedrich Gülich, 2 nd ed) Shaft diameter can be found usin the followin formula d s = 3 16 T π η t The torque can be calculated as it follows: T = P ω = P 2πn = π = 362Nm The allowable shear stress for most of the shafts is in the rane between N/mm2. Thus the shaft diameter becomes: d s = mm, say d s = 40mm The volumetric efficiency is iven by: 1 = η 2 3, = , = or n V n s V = The inlet number can be found from the followin table.

D 2 = / = 0.397mm ψ = H U U 2 = πd 2n = 2H 60 ψ Thus the outer diameter can be taken to be D 2 =0.4m D 2 = 60 πn 2H ψ The head coefficient for different type of pumps is iven below. Choosin ψ = 1, Cordier Diaram U 2 = 31.32m, and s D 2 = 0.412m 2) The specific diameter (δ) Blade width b1 b 1 = ϱ πd 1 C om = ϱ η V πd 1 C om δ = ψ1 4 ϕ 1 2 ψ = 2H U = 2Y π 2 n 2 D 2 ϕ = C m U = ϱ AU = ϱ πd 2 = 4ϱ 4 πd π 2 D 3 n n = = 0.039m π m The Blade width at the outlet b2 b 2 = ϱ πd 2 C 2m = C 2m can be found from fiure below. ϱ η V πd 2 C 2m The specific diameter becomes, Pae 112

8 CALCULATION PART: Pump Impeller Types Centrifual pump impeller types are: 1. Forward swept impeller 2. Radial exit impeller 3. Backswept impeller 1.Forward swept impeller is used for low flow rate and head. 2. Backswept impeller is used for hih flow rate and head. 3. Radial exit impeller is used for medium head and flow rate Terminoloy of Centrifual Pumps Suction Head (hs): It is the vertical heiht of the center line of the pump above the water surface in the sump. This heiht is the suction lift and is denoted as hs Delivery Head (hd): It is the vertical heiht between the center line of the pump and water surface in the tank to which water is delivered. It is denoted as hd Static head (Hs): Static head is the vertical distance between the liquid level in the sump and the delivery tank. It is denoted by Hs. Therefore static head, Hs = hs+hd Manometric Head (Hm) or effective head: It is the total head or lift that must be produced by the pump to satisfy external requirement. It includes all the losses. Impeller Types and Velocity Trianle h = H d H s P d + V 2 d γ 2 + Z d P s + V 2 s γ 2 + Z s Head Developed by a Pump Total dynamic head For a horizontal pump the total dynamic head is defined as H = H d H s + V d 2 V 2 s 2 2 Pae 114

9 For a vertical pump with pumpin element submered, the total dynamic head is defined as H = H d H s + V d 2 2 Desin Parameters Impeller Speed Pipe Connections and Velocities Impeller Inlet Dimensions and Vane Anles Impeller Outlet Dimensions and Vane Anles Impeller Vane Shape Pump Desin Procedure In most cases, rotational speed, N, desin flow rate, Q, and head, H, will be prescribed Check whether a reasonable impeller size can achieve the desired head, H = U 2 2 / A taret efficiency η is assumed, eliminatin the effect of losses. This is checked aainst the efficiency from the chart. Now H th = H / η To facilitate choice of subsequent variables, a dimensionless plot is introduced, which shows theoretical head, represented by head coefficient, Ψ, aainst the flow rate, represented by flow coefficient, Φ Now Head coefficient, ψ = H ηu2 = C t2 2 flow coefficient, ϕ = Also Ψ = ζ Φ tan β2 ϱ πd 2 B 2 U 2 = C m 2 U 2 Ct2 is proportional to the theoretical head and Cm2 is proportional to the flow rate These velocities fully determine the pump performance Head coefficient would enerally decline linearly from about Ψ = 0.75 at Ns = 1000 to Ψ = 0.45 at Ns = 4000 Typical values for Ψ and Φ are in the rane of and respectively Choice of head and flow coefficients from the plot also determines the Impeller exit blade anle β2. Usually it is taken as 68 from radial U 2 Exact impeller diameter D2 can then be chosen to ive the necessary tip speed, U2 H th = H η = U 2C t2 = ψu 2 2 Effective Impeller exit width b2 is determined from the expression for flow rate, ϱ = πd 2 B 2 C r2 = πd 2 B 2 U 2 θ Number of Impeller blades can be chosen from the iven chart usin exit blade anle β2, and slip coefficient ζ. More blades will uide the flow better, increase the slip coefficient and increase the head Impeller Speed and Pipe Conditions Impeller Speed Speed of the drive unit may be specified by the customer. It enerally follows standard motor speeds, e , 2880 rpm, etc. In such cases, the specific speed is fixed unless the head is hih enouh to use a multistae machine. Then the specific speed may be varied by usin different number of staes. If the operatin speed is not iven, it may be chosen to ive a specific speed correspondin to hih pump efficiency and the prevailin suction conditions. Pipe Connections and Velocities To avoid cavitations, the diameter of the suction pipe is usually larer than the pump suction flane, and both are larer than the dischare flane and pipe. Suction flane diameter is selected to achieve desin point fluid velocity, which may rane from 1.3 to 6 m/s. Dischare flane diameter is also based upon the desin point fluid velocity in the rane of 4 to 14 m/s. Sizin of Impeller Inlet First step is to determine the shaft size. Pae 115

10 Shaft size should take care of the torque and bendin moment, should avoid excessive lateral deflection, and should keep the critical speed away from operatin speed 3 Shaft diameter, D s = 16T πf s Based on torque alone strenth alone or 3 32M πf t Based on bendin A more accurate check on the stresses and the deflection may be made after the impeller is desined and the loads are known Impeller Vane Inlet Anle Fluid is assumed to enter the Vane radially. So that α 1 = 90 The Vane inlet anle is iven by: tanβ 1 = V r1 μ 1 This Value of is slihtly increased to take care of the stream contraction at the inlet edes and of the fluid prerotation. It is increased more for hih suction lifts and smaller D2/D1 (i.e., hiher specific speed impellers). The inlet anle usually falls in the rane of 10 o -25 o. Inlet uide vanes could be placed before the impeller to ive a neative Vu1 and thus raise the head and overall efficiency at the desin condition, but the head and efficiency drop off more rapidly under off desin operatin conditions. The virtual head for α 1 = 90 is iven by: H vir, = 1 u 2 2 u 2V r2 tan β 2 Total head H is iven by: H = K u 2V u 2 = KH vir, Combinin the above equations, we et : H = u 2 2 u 2 V r2 tan β 2 Solvin for u 2 : u 2 = 1 2 V r2 tan β 2 + V r2 tan β 2 2 K + 4H K For radial impeller, varies between 0.65 and 0.75 and K varies between 0.6 and 0.7, the larer Values applyin to lower specific speed impellers. The outer diameter can be more easily obtained considerin the overall head coefficient at the head H at best efficiency point u 2 = ϕ 2H The value of varies between 0.9 and 1.2 with averae value close to unity. The main influencin factors are head, flow capacity and specific speed. The value can be read from available charts. In eneral, backward curved vanes are used for pump impellers, because they have lower exit velocity compared to radial or forward curved vanes. Results: Input for Blade desin are iven below: Specific Speed = 38.5 Power input to the pump = 1.84hp Shaft Diameter = 25 mm Outer Diameter of impeller = 144 mm Velocity of fluid at the impeller inlet = 5.43 m/s Inner Diameter of impeller = 36 mm Inlet blade anle = op Impeller width at inlet = 10 mm Blade anle at outlet = op Number of blades = 4 CONCLUSION: An impeller was desined for the input details usin standard formulas and the vane profile was traced accordinly. Since the simulation is done only for the impeller s blade and cover part, the front and rear shrouds and hub portions in the modelin. The output of the simulation is close enouh to the theoretical calculations. Hence it can be stated that, the usae of ANSYS structural analysis is worthy when compared to Forward, Backward and Radial are analyzed with chanin no. of blades as 4,8 and 12 steps of blades. From the Results and plot table it is concludes that Backward blade reduction in deformation, Stress and Strain when comparin other types by increases in Pae 116

11 blade nos. thus by results we reducin the time for various prototypes, and reducin the financial investments for each trials. Percentae of reduction of stress comparin Backward blade with Forward & Radial is varies from 6 to 14 % for 4no. blade, 8 to 32 % for 8 no. blade,31 to 69 % for 12 no. blade. By results we come to conclusion by increasin no. of blade in backward flow is best desin for hih head and low stress and Conclude with best results.
