Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of impellers, and more particularly, to a shaft tubular pump impeller with cavitation resistance. Background Art
[0002] When a water pump is working, cavitation often occurs. Essentially, this cavitation phenomenon is a kind of hydrodynamic cavitation effect related to vortices. It refers to the situation where when the pressure of a fluid during movement drops below its critical pressure (generally the saturated vapor pressure), cavitation bubbles are generated in local areas of the fluid. After these cavitation bubbles grow to a certain extent and then collapse and disappear under the influence of external factors, a water hammer effect is triggered locally, and the stress can reach thousands of atmospheric pressures. Obviously, this effect is destructive. Macroscopically, the cavitation phenomenon causes erosion damage to the surface of the flow channel (a kind of continuous high-frequency impact damage), triggers vibration, and generates noise; in severe cases, there is a broken flow, resulting in blockage of the flow channel and a decline in the performance of the water pump. When the existing water pump impellers guide the flow of the fluid, the impact force of the fluid on the impeller is relatively large, and the cavitation phenomenon is relatively obvious, thus affecting the service life of the impeller.

[0029] The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with embodiments.
[0030] Refer to Figure 1-2 , a shaft tubular turbine pump impeller with cavitation resistance. When in use, water flows in axially along the impeller and flows out axially, including a hub 1 and blades 2; the axial direction of the hub 1 is the water inlet (as shown by the arrow in the attachment Figure 1 ), there are several blades 2 provided on the hub 1, and each blade 2 is provided with a skirt part 3. The skirt part 3 is provided on the end face of the blade 2 away from the hub 1, and the skirt part 3 faces the water inlet side. Under the action of the skirt part 3, the flow state of cavitation in the small gap is improved, and the cavitation effect can be improved. Thus, it is applied to the shaft tubular turbine pump. At the same time, through CFD simulation tests and actual measurements, the application of this impeller structure on the shaft tubular turbine pump has an obvious improvement effect on the cavitation of the impeller outer edge, and at the same time, it can extend the overhaul time of the impeller and increase the service life of the impeller.
[0031] The skirt part 3 is perpendicular to the blade 2.
[0032] The length of the skirt part 3 is greater than the distance length from both ends of the skirt part 3 to the end points of the blade 2. Let the length of the skirt part 3 be a, and the distance length from both ends of the skirt part 3 to the end points of the blade 2 be b, and b is less than
[0033] Both ends of the skirt part 3 are configured as an inclined surface 4.
[0034] The thickness of the skirt part 3 is greater than that of the blade 2, and the ratio of the thickness of the skirt part 3 to the thickness of the blade 2 ranges from 1.05 to 1.2.
[0035] The skirt part 3 and the blade 2 are of an integral structure, and the materials of the skirt part 3, the blade 2 and the hub 1 are all stainless steel. The integral structure has higher connection strength and a long service life. The stainless steel material has strong cavitation resistance.
[0036] The blade 2 as a whole has a wide-width twisted streamline shape.
[0037] The end face of the blade 2 close to the hub 1 is an inclined surface structure, and the inclination angle of the end face of the blade 2 close to the hub 1 is 15° - 30°. This increases the inlet angle and further reduces the generation of cavitation.
[0038] The blade 2 is detachably connected to the hub 1 by bolts, which facilitates the replacement of the blade 2.
