Influence of Impeller Outlet Angles in Pump Flow Patterns and Characteristics

For the improvement of the pump characteristics in the partial capacity range, it must be verified that the influence of the impeller design factor on the internal flows and the influence of the impeller internal flows on the pump characteristics. In this paper, in order to understand the influence of outlet angles on flow conditions and characteristics of a mixed flow pump, experiments were carried out for four kinds of impeller, which have the same inlet angle distributions and meridional section shapes. Results shown that separation and stall in the partial capacity range were enlarged by the outlet angles. The relationship between the separation and the stall at the impeller and the discharge flow conditions were clarified.
