Abstract

This paper describes the optimization of rotary shaft pump performance, which is accomplished by comparing the performance of four different centrifugal rotary pump configurations: hooked blades pump, backward-curved blades ID=12.7mm pump, contoured base pump, and backward-curved blades ID=19.1mm pump. Each of these devices utilizes a unique and simple impeller design where the blades are directly integrated into a shaft with an outer diameter of 25.4mm. Presented for each pump are performance data including volumetric flow rate, pump head, and hydraulic efficiency. When pumping water, the most optimal arrangement with the hooked impeller blades produces a maximum flow rate of 3.22L∕min and a pump head as high as 0.97m.
