Abstract

Based on the ISIGHT optimization platform, the impeller parameterization modeling and simulation process of the portable axial flow pump is carried out through CFturbo, ICEM and CFX software, and the impeller is optimized with the help of multi-island genetic algorithm to target the two optimization objectives of efficiency and head. The optimization results show that the hydraulic efficiency increased by 6.3% under design conditions. At the same time, compared with the original solution, the optimized cavitation performance is significantly improved. Additionally, overall entropy production is significantly reduced. Field test results show that the head deviation is 1.42% and the efficiency deviation is 4.52% under design conditions, proving that the optimization results are reliable.
