Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of positive displacement pump profile design technology, and in particular to a profile design method for a wear-resistant elasto-plastic body plum blossom pump. Background Technology
[0002] In data center thermal management systems and liquid cooling solutions, the reliability, efficiency, and stability of fluid transport equipment (such as pumps) are crucial. These applications typically require pumps to operate stably under high pressure for extended periods, while also exhibiting low vibration and low noise characteristics to ensure that the working environment of precision electronic equipment remains undisturbed.
[0003] Existing pumps used in this field, such as common gear pumps and vane pumps, often employ cycloidal, circular, or a combination thereof profiles for their core component rotors. These traditional profiles are designed with line contact in mind, aiming for better sealing. However, in actual operation, especially in areas with the highest rotor contact stress, the most stringent sealing requirements, and the most complex movements, line contact can lead to the following significant problems: 1. Severe friction and wear: The line contact design results in a large specific pressure over the contact area. Especially under high-pressure transmission conditions, the friction and wear between rotors are aggravated, which not only reduces the service life of the pump and increases maintenance costs, but also the particles generated by wear may contaminate the transported medium, posing a threat to the precision cooling system of the data center.
[0004] 2. Pressure pulsation and vibration noise: During the meshing process, traditional profiles are prone to rapid changes in the closed volume, resulting in significant pulsations in outlet flow and pressure. These pressure pulsations can cause vibration and noise in the pipeline and system, which does not meet the requirements of data centers for a low-noise operating environment. At the same time, continuous pulsation impacts can also affect the structural integrity of the pump and its connecting components.
[0005] 3. Insufficient high-pressure sealing performance: With the pursuit of higher efficiency and the continuous increase in power density in data centers, pumps need to operate at higher output pressures. Traditional pump profiles may deform or wear under high pressure, leading to increased meshing clearance, reduced sealing effect, increased internal leakage, decreased volumetric efficiency, and difficulty in ensuring sustained stability of the delivery pressure. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a technical solution for the profile design method of a wear-resistant elasto-plastic body plum blossom pump, addressing the shortcomings of existing technologies. This design method not only utilizes the characteristics of precise conjugate meshing and point contact of involute curves at the points of highest rotor contact stress, highest sealing requirements, and most complex movement, reducing friction and wear between rotors compared to line contact of other profiles, but also provides a good sealing effect between the involute curve and the pump body wall under high-pressure conveying conditions, ensuring long-term stable conveying pressure, reducing pulsation, and improving working efficiency.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A method for designing the profile of a wear-resistant elasto-plastic composite plum blossom pump, characterized by the following steps: S1, Profile Parameter Design Determine the number of blades for the inner and outer rotors of the plum blossom pump, and design the profile design parameters for the inner and outer rotors. S2, External Rotor Design Based on the profile design parameters, the profile of the first worm claw of the outer rotor is designed. The first worm claw profile is composed of the circular arc segment AB, the circular arc segment BC, the transition cubic curve segment CD, the involute segment DE, the transition cubic curve segment EF, and the arc segment FG connected in sequence. The equation of the circular arc AB is: ; Where, θ 12 θ is a constant. 11 Let L1 be the straight-line distance from the center O of the base circle of the involute to the circular arc segment AB O1, and R1 be the radius of the circular arc segment AB.

The equation of the transition cubic curve segment CD is: ; Where a, b, c, and d are the equation coefficients of the outer rotor; The equation of the involute segment DE is: ; Where e is the eccentricity and t1 is the development angle of the involute; S3, Internal Rotor Design Based on the profile design parameters, the profile of the second worm claw of the inner rotor is designed. The profile of the second worm claw is composed of a circular arc segment ab, a circular arc segment bc, a transition cubic curve segment cd, an involute segment de, a transition cubic curve segment ef, and an arc segment fg connected in sequence. The equation of the circular arc segment ab is: ; Where, θ 12 θ is a constant. 11 Let L1 be the straight-line distance from the center O of the base circle of the involute to the circular arc segment AB O1, R1 be the radius of the circular arc segment AB, and e be the eccentricity. The equation of the circular arc segment bc is: ; Where, θ 21 θ is a constant. 22 Let L2 be the straight-line distance from the center O of the base circle of the involute to the center O2 of the arc segment BC, R2 be the radius of the arc segment BC, and e be the eccentricity. The equation of the transition cubic curve segment cd is: ; Where k is the scaling factor, (x0, y0) is the center of the scaling circle, and a, b, c, d are the equation coefficients of the outer rotor; The equation of the involute segment de is: ; Where e is the eccentricity, t1 is the involute development angle, and t2 is the involute development angle; S4, the conjugate meshing of the inner and outer rotors forms a plum blossom pump profile. The outer rotor is fixed in place, while the inner rotor moves eccentrically along the inner side of the outer rotor, forming the desired plum blossom pump profile through conjugate meshing.
[0008] This design method not only utilizes the precise conjugate meshing and point contact characteristics of involute curves at the points of greatest rotor contact stress, highest sealing requirements, and most complex motion, reducing friction and wear between rotors compared to line contact with other profiles, but also provides a good sealing effect with the pump body wall under high-pressure conveying conditions, ensuring long-term stable conveying pressure, reducing pulsation, and improving working efficiency.
[0009] Furthermore, the equation of the inner rotor's arc segment ab is obtained by translating the equation of the outer rotor's arc segment AB, and the equation of the inner rotor's arc segment bc is obtained by translating the equation of the outer rotor's arc segment BC.
[0010] Furthermore, the equation of the involute segment de differs from the equation of the involute segment DE by a phase difference.
[0011] Furthermore, the plum blossom pump profile is an axisymmetric structure.
[0012] Furthermore, a cubic curve is added between the involute segment DE and the circular arc segment BC to achieve a smooth transition; At point C: ; At point D: .
[0013] Furthermore, the equation for the transition cubic curve segment cd of the inner rotor is obtained through three steps, specifically including the following steps: (1) Translation of the coordinate system: Translate each point on the outer rotor so that the center (x0, y0) becomes the new origin of the coordinate system. ; (2) Proportional scaling: The translated coordinates are scaled proportionally. ; (3) Restoring the translation: The scaled coordinates are restored to the original coordinate system by restoring the translation. ; Substituting the transformation formula into the equation of the outer rotor: ; The equation for the transition cubic curve segment cd of the inner rotor is obtained by expansion: ; Where k is the scaling factor, (x0, y0) is the center of the scaling circle, and a, b, c, d are the equation coefficients of the outer rotor.
