AI Technical Summary
In the existing technology, water pump blades are susceptible to cavitation damage when rotating at high speed, resulting in excessive vibration and noise. Furthermore, existing methods, such as selecting high-strength materials or coatings, are difficult to maintain and lack effective structural improvement solutions.
Arc-shaped patterns are set on the surface of the water pump blades, forming disordered pits and protrusions arranged radially along the impeller. The irregular arrangement of the arc-shaped patterns reduces cavitation and dissipates shock wave energy.

Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a kind of water pump blade structure based on arc-shaped line and its method for weakening the harm of cavitation to blade, belong to water conservancy engineering, municipal engineering technical field. BACKGROUND
[0002] When water pump blade works, its high-speed rotation can form low pressure area on blade suction surface, when impeller speed is larger, the pressure value of low pressure area is lower than water vaporization pressure, so that a large number of cavitation bubbles are generated in water body.When cavitation bubble flows into blade pressure surface along with water flow, due to the sudden increase of pressure, cavitation bubble is broken.When cavitation bubble is broken and attached to blade, the shock wave generated can erode and damage blade, damage blade structure in long-term operation, reduce blade strength and working efficiency.In addition, cavitation can also cause blade vibration, excessive noise and other problems in operation.It is an important factor affecting the safe and stable operation of water pump.In actual operation, the faster the impeller speed or the water pump is not in the high efficiency area, the more cavitation phenomenon is prone to occur, and mainly concentrated on blade pressure surface.At present, the main methods to improve the cavitation resistance of blade are to select high-strength materials to manufacture blade or to cover special coating on the surface of blade.Selecting high-strength materials to manufacture blade can increase the manufacturing cost and processing difficulty of blade, and still produce cavitation damage in different degrees in long-term operation.While using coating method needs regular inspection and maintenance of coating, and the operation and management is difficult.Currently, the existing patents do not make great changes to the structure of water pump blade, and there is no effective solution to cavitation.

[0006] The arc-shaped lines are arranged in a staggered and irregular manner along the radial direction of the impeller on the blade; the arc-shaped lines are curved towards the side where water flows out of the blade.
[0007] After setting the arc-shaped lines, the blade surface forms the concave pits and convex projections arranged in disorder along the radial direction of the impeller.
[0008] The width of the rectangular grid is 0.06d, and the length is 0.08d.
