Abstract
Centrifugal pumps, which are widely used in industry for transporting liquids in plants and in water purification systems, and it is necessary to improve the instability characteristics at extremely low flow rate conditions. The negative slope of the characteristic curve is the evidence of instability of the flow, and it must be based on the local reverse flow zone and pre-whirl at impeller inlet. It is possible to predict the negative slope of the characteristics by unsteady numerical analysis at low flow rate, however, optimization design search requires many numerical analysis of individuals, it is not realistic solution to use the unsteady numerical analysis for the optimization.
