Abstract
3D model and grid was conducted in Gambit,while single-phase flow field in the pump was simulated in CFD code-Fluent,by means of multiple reference frame (MRF) method, Renormalization group k-ε two-equation turbulence model (RNG k-εmodel) and Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure-Linked Equations (SIMPLEC) algorithm. Aim at problems generated by pump body such as body length limitation on pressure increasing, three new structure of labyrinth screw pumps,rotor separated LSP,stator separated LSP and rotor stator all separated LSP, were put forward in this paper.The analytical results got by contrasted pump hydraulic performance of different structure models indicated that pressure increasing magnitude and pressure increasing rate of the three separated pumps is larger compared to the unseparated pumps,and the conclusion was achieved that pump performance can be optimized through separating rotor or stator into sections by making ring slots on screw body.
