1 Pipeline simulation by the method of characteristics for calculating the pressure pulsation of a high-pressure water plunger pump Dr.-Ing.(Rus) Maxim Andreev*, Dipl.-Ing. Uwe Grätz* and Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Achim Lamparter** ESI ITI GmbH, Schweriner Str. 1, Dresden, Germany* URACA GmbH & Co. KG, Sirchinger Str. 15, 7574 Bad Urach, Germany** maxim.andreev@esi-group.com, uwe.graetz@esi-group.com, a.lamparter@uraca.de The article describes ways to adapt the method of characteristics to solving the problem of pressure pulsation calculation of a high-pressure plunger water pump considering a complex pipeline network using a CAE software SimulationX. The objective of this adaptation is to increase the stability of the numerical solution and reduce the calculation time. To verify the accuracy of the simulation, the pressure pulsations were compared with pulsations in various parts of a real complex pipeline. As a result, a compromise between accuracy and speed of calculations was achieved, which improves the process of pump development. Keywords: Fluid power networks, digitalization, connectivity, communication Target audience: Industrial Hydraulics, Simulation, Design Process 1 Introduction Figure 1: The pump design of URACA GmbH&Co.KG Pumps of this type typically consist of a drive unit and a pumped media unit. To prevent mixing of the lubricating liquid with the pumped medium, these two units are completely separated. The drive unit assembly is used to transfer the energy of the connected drive. The rotation is converted into an oscillating plunger motion. The plungers then transfer energy to the pumped medium, moving it from the suction space to the high-pressure space. Switching between the space environment suction and discharge is performed by the valve block. Every engineer involved in simulating technical systems faces the task of selecting appropriate modelling assumptions. The current state of computer technology and software allows modelling systems of almost any complexity with a very high degree of accuracy, achieving a perfect match with experiment. However, the solution cannot always be obtained quickly; at times, the calculation time can be up to weeks or even months, especially when it comes to optimization problems. This problem is especially relevant for engineers involved in the simulation of hydraulic systems. The methods of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and methods of 1D-simulation based on Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE) can be applied. CFD achieves high computational accuracy but requiring a long computational time. In the case of 1D-Simulation, strong assumptions must be introduced, but it allows you to quickly obtain a result. Thus, any mathematical model is always a compromise between accuracy and calculation time, and the art of simulation consists of choosing the optimal path to achieve this compromise. This article describes the process of achieving this compromise in solving the problem of pressure pulsation calculation in a high-pressure plunger water pump while considering the effect of a complex pipeline network. Plunger pump as a source of pulsations The object of study a system with integrated three plunger high-pressure water pump is shown in Figure 1. Figure : Pump valves (URACA GmbH&Co.KG) Figure shows the phases of operation of the plunger and valves. (1) shows the front position of the plunger when both valves are closed. From this position, the suction process () begins. Reducing the pressure in the plunger chamber leads to the opening of the suction valve, which enables the medium to enter the working chamber. At position (3), the suction process is complete. The pressure in the working chamber is equal to the pressure in the suction space, and the suction valve is closed. During the discharge stroke (4), the pressure in the working chamber is increased. The discharge valve opens and lets the medium pass from the working chamber to the pressure space. 155
2 The following factors have a significant effect on the flow pulsation of the pump \1\: a finite number of plungers nonlinearity due to the kinematics of the mechanism delays in the valve actuation due to the compressibility of the medium. Figure 3 shows an example of the ideal volume flow of a three-plunger pump as a function of crankshaft angle. As can be seen, the theoretical volumetric pump flow is essentially non-linear and contains discontinuities. This fact makes the analysis of pressure fluctuations in the pipeline in the frequency domain problematic and makes the calculation in the time domain preferable. 3 One-dimensional model of wave propagation in pipelines and methods of numerical solution To simulate a pressure pipeline, the following assumptions are made: the pipeline is filled with liquid the cross section of the pipeline is constant and does not vary with pressure for calculations, the velocity averaged over the cross section of the pipe is used and the influence of the nonuniformity of the velocity distribution is neglected heat exchange between liquid, pipe walls and the environment is not considered The mathematical model under such assumptions can be based on the one-dimensional (xx - length coordinate) Euler equations: + (ρρρρ) = 0 (ρρρρ) + (ρρvv + pp) = ρρ (FF + GG) Figure 3: Volume flow of each plunger (Q1-3) and total volume flow (Qsum) as a function of crankshaft angle (without delays in the valve actuation) In this case, there is no delay in opening the valve, which is typical for a pump without external load. The pulsation of the volume flow is exclusively due to a finite number of pistons and the nonlinearity of the kinematics of the mechanism. When the load pressure is increased, there is no volume flow up to a certain angle of rotation of the crankshaft until the pressure valve opens. An example of the calculation of the flow for this case is shown in Figure 4. where ρρ fluid density, vv flow velocity, pp pressure, FF friction loss, GG - gravity pressure drop. For convenience of further calculations, the equations are rewritten in primitive variables pp and vv //: + vv + ρρ cc = ρρ + vv = FF + GG Where cc sound speed. In the case of a liquid, as a rule, the expression vv cc holds. In this case, the equations take the final form: + ρρ cc = = FF + GG ρρ (1) Differential equations in partial derivatives (1) must be supplemented by algebraic equations that describe the properties of a fluid. Density is calculated as a function of pressure pp, temperature TT and the volume fraction of undissolved gas αα UU. ρρ = ρρ(pp, TT, αα UU ) Similarly, the calculation of the equivalent bulk modulus EE ee is needed for the calculation of cc. Finally, cc is calculated with the equation: Figure 4: Volume flow of each plunger (Q1-3) and total volume flow (Qsum) as a function of crankshaft angle (with delays in the valve actuation) cc = EE ee ρρ The equivalent bulk modulus EE ee is a measure of the equivalent fluid compressibility (including the wall elasticity). 157
3 Thus, the problem reduces to solving hyperbolic systems of partial differential equations (1). Among the many available methods to solve this problem, three main approaches are highlighted: Discretization of the equation for the finite control volume. In this case, the pipe volume is divided into a finite number of volumes with the pressure and velocity calculated at the centres and boundaries respectively. Partial derivatives along the length of the tube are transformed into finite differences. Thus the system of equations becomes a system of ordinary differential equations. The advantage of this approach is the ease of integration into an ordinary differential equations (ODE) solver. There are no additional restrictions on the time step. The disadvantage is the numerical oscillations that arise when calculating the propagation of shock waves /3/, making this approach unsuitable for solving this problem. The method of characteristics is based on the idea that the independent variables tt (time) and xx (coordinate) are related by the equation of characteristics. Along these characteristics the PDE becomes an ordinary differential equation. Once the ODE is found, it can be solved along the characteristic curves and transformed into a solution for the original PDE. The disadvantage of this approach is the restriction of the time step by the Courant Friedrichs Lewy condition. Nevertheless, this method allows for solving the problem of shock wave propagation in pipelines, if there is not much difference in the density and speed of sound in neighbouring cells /3/. The methods based on Godunov s scheme are based on the solution of the Riemann problem for each inter-cell boundary. This scheme allows for solving the problem of shock wave propagation of almost any complexity, but it is usually more computationally time-consuming /3/. At first, it is necessary to transform the equations into suitable ordinary differential equations, referred to as compatibility equations on characteristics /4/: compatibility equation on C + characteristics: dddd + 1 dddd (FF + GG)dddd = 0 ρρρρ dddd dddd = +cc compatibility equation on C characteristics: dddd 1 dddd (FF + GG)dddd = 0 ρρρρ dddd dddd = cc Along curves C + and C the set of partial differential equations become ordinary differential equations. These characteristics are shown in Figure 7. As a compromise between the simplicity and accuracy of the solution, the method of characteristics was chosen. 4 Description of the simplified method of characteristics At time tt jj the values of the pressure pp ii,jj and velocity vv ii,jj at points xx ii are known. Figure 7: Lines of the characteristics Figure 5: General case of the initial conditions Characteristics cross the line tt jj at the points cc and ff. Pressure pp cc, pp ff and velocity vv cc, vv ff at points cc and ff are determined by linear interpolation. The values of these parameters for time tt jj+1 = tt jj + Δtt need to be calculated. Figure 6: Pipe at the time step tt jj+1 Figure 8: Interpolation of the values at the points c and f. 159
4 Now, the difference scheme can be written: (vv ii,jj+1 vv cc ) + 1 ρρρρ (pp ii,jj+1 pp cc ) (FF cc + GG)Δtt = 0 (vv ii,jj+1 vv ff ) 1 ρρρρ (pp ii,jj+1 pp ff ) (FF ff + GG)Δtt = 0 where FF cc and FF ff are the Friction Losses values calculated for states at points cc and ff. The time step size is calculated by considering the Courant-Friedrich-Levy Number (or Courant Number) kk CCCCCC : Δtt = kk CCCCCC Δxx cc. For a stable numerical solution, choose the time step such that the kk CCCCCC < 1 /3/, /4/. These equations can be solved without the use of iterative methods for all grid points except the first and last. At these points, the pressure and velocity are calculated by taking the following boundary conditions into account: the left end of the pipe: (vv AA vv AAAA ) 1 ρρρρ (pp AA pp AAAA ) (FF AAAA + GG)Δtt = 0 the right end of the pipe: (vv BB vv BBBB ) + 1 ρρρρ (pp BB pp BBBB ) (FF BBBB + GG)Δtt = 0 Pressure and velocity are calculated with a discrete time step. If the time step of ODE-solver is smaller than the time step of the local solver of method of characteristics, the result will be in the form of steps. For smoothing the result, the pressures pp AAAA, pp BBBB and velocities vv AAAA, vv BBBB are calculated as follows: dd dddd (uu AAAA) = uu {1}ff,jj+1 uu {1}ff,jj Δtt dd dddd (uu BBBB) = uu {nn+1}cc,jj+1 uu {nn+1}cc,jj Δtt Where uu = pp vv, uu {ii}ff(cc),jj pressure or velocity in the point cc(ff), obtained from the construction positive (or negative) characteristics from point xx ii at time tt jj. The Friction Losses FF AAAA and FF BBBB are calculated as: FF AAAA = ff(vv AAAA ) FF BBBB = ff(vv BBBB ) These equations must be solved together with equations describing the processes in the devices connected to the ends of the pipe. Figure 9 shows an example of the calculation of the pressure at the boundary of the pipe. Figure 9: Connection of the results of the solver of the method of characteristics (blue) and ODE-Solver (red) In case of variable density and speed of sound, the equations take the form /3/: (vv ii,jj+1 vv cc ) + 1 ρρ cc cc (pp ii,jj+1 pp cc ) (FF cc + GG)Δtt = 0 cc (vv ii,jj+1 vv ff ) 1 ρρ ff cc (pp ii,jj+1 pp ff ) (FF ff + GG)Δtt = 0 ff where: ρρ cc(ff) = ρρ cc(ff),jj+1 + ρρ cc(ff) cc cc(ff) = cc cc(ff),jj+1 + cc cc(ff) In these cases, the system of equations can be solved only by iterative methods. The following assumptions can significantly speed up the calculations: ρρ cc(ff) = ρρ MM, cc cc(ff) = cc MM, νν cc(ff) = νν MM where ρρ MM, cc MM, νν MM are average values of density, velocity of sound, and viscosity calculated at each time step using the fluid properties: ρρ MM = ρρ(pp MM, TT MM, αα UUUU ) cc MM = cc(pp MM, TT MM, αα UUUU ) νν MM = νν(pp MM, TT MM, αα UUUU ) where pp MM, TT MM, αα UUUU are average values of the pressure, temperature and gas fraction. nn+1 pp ii pp MM = ii=1 nn + 1 TT MM = TT AA + TT BB αα UUUU = αα UUUU + αα UUUU Due to the conversion of the sound velocity at the end of each step, a new calculation of the time step Δtt is performed. 161
5 5 Simulation results To validate the method described above, a mathematical model of the test bench of URACA GmbH & Co. KG was created /5/. The test bench consists of a three-plunger water pump driven by an electric motor and a simple pipeline (see Figure 10). Figure 10: Scheme of the test bench At the beginning of the pipeline, a pressure sensor pd1 is installed. The second pressure sensor pd is installed at 1,68 m from the sensor pd1. The total length of the pipeline is 30,3 m. The purpose of the valve is to set the offset pressure bar comparison simulation and measuring pd np=50rpm; p=00 bar ,05 6,1 6,15 6, 6,5 6,3 s measuring simulation The mathematical model of the test bench, modelled in the SimulationX 3.8, is shown in the Figure 11. Figure 1: Comparison of simulation results with measurement results. Figure 11: Simulation model of the test bench In the plunger pump model, the following factors were considered /5/: kinematics of the mechanism; valve static characteristics; compressibility of liquid in the working chamber. The pipeline is simulated using two pipe models with the built-in characteristic method. Local resistance is not considered. The local time step in the method of characteristics is 1.6 ms, kk CCCCCC = 0,95. Comparisons of simulation results with measurement results are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 13. Figure 13: Comparison of simulation results with measurement results. 163
6 The comparison with the data shows a good correlation of the fundamental harmonics and characteristic peaks. At the same time, a significantly less damping in the simulation model can be observed. This can be explained by the absence of the hydraulic resistances of the knees in the model and also a possible influence of non-stationary friction. It should be noted that a very simple model from the point of view of creation and parametrization was used to obtain these results. The real-time factor in the calculation, depending on the solver used, is between and 3, which makes this model very convenient for rapid preliminary assessment of the level of pressure fluctuations in the pipeline. 6 Summary and Conclusion 1. A high level of pulsations in the volume flow of a three-plunger pump makes it necessary to have a method for predicting the level of pressure ripples considering the pipeline. // Randall J.

The nonlinear nature of pulsations makes analysis in the time domain preferable. 3. To solve the problem of wave propagation in the pipeline, the method of characteristics was used with a local variable time step built into the ODE-solver. 4. Comparison with the results of the experiments showed the feasibility of using this model for preliminary calculations of pressure pulsations in the pipeline. 5. This model is effectively used by URACA GmbH&Co.KG to predict mechanical vibrations considering wave processes in the pipeline and to design resonance pulsation dampers.
