Abstract
To meet the stringent size and noise requirements for hydraulic pumps used in submarines, an embedded tri-screw pump is proposed. The pump is embedded in the core of the servo motor to form a new servo motor pump. This paper first presents the embedded triscrew pump, as well as the cross-section profile design and parameter equations of the driving and driven screws. Velocity and pressure field distributions as well as changes in internal pressure and shear stress inside the embedded tri-screw pump with different radial and interlobe clearances were investigated using computational fluid dynamics. Furthermore, screw deformation under multi-field coupling was analyzed. In contrast to torque or fluid pressure acting alone, under the fluid-solid coupling effect, screw deformation and stresses are inversely proportional to the rotational speed of the pump and directly proportional to the power and output pressure. The simulation and experimental results were consistent for various outlet pressures and rotational speeds. Radial clearance of the screw has a more significant influence on leakage than inter-lobe clearance and therefore, more impact on the volumetric efficiency of the pump.
