Flow Pattern Analysis and Performance Improvement of Regenerative Flow Pump Using Blade Geometry Modification

Regenerative pump is a low specific speed and rotor-dynamic turbomachine capable of developing high heads at low flow rates. In this paper, a numerical study has been carried out in order to investigate the effect of blade angle on the performance of a regenerative pump. Two groups of impellers were...
