Centrifugal pump Simulation in Cfx ; Head capacity curve not matching
Hi,
I am trying to simulate a centrifugal pump to generate head capacity curve and compare it with experimental results. My simulation results of head values much differ from the test data. Pump specs: Duty point discharge - 2 litres per second Head- 21 m Speed-2800 rpm Impeller dia - 141 mm Cfd gives much higher values of head in higher flows. This pump is supposed to give 0 m head at around 3.5 lps flow, but instead gives about 19 metres of head. I used SST & K-E models, used wall roughness, but not much advantage. Hope anyone may help me resolve this issue. |
