Abstract
A study on the unsteady characteristics of pump turbine in pumping mode was made. Basing on the existing research, this paper is aimed at providing valuable reference for hydraulic design, structure optimization, fault diagnosis of pump turbine. CFX simulation verified by experiment was made to analyze the distribution law and propagation characteristic of pressure and its pulsation in the whole fluid field. Research shows that the pressure pulsation owns different propagation characteristic from the flow velocity pulsation. The pressure pulsation component with guide blade frequency has very special properties in stationary flow passages, while the pressure pulsation component with runner blade passing frequency is absolutely different. Blade constraints have significant effect on the unsteady properties of pressure and flow velocity. Besides, some other analysis was talked about, such as the external characteristics, pressure pulsation near the volute tongue, and so on.
