Influence of Prewhirl Angle and Axial Distance on Energy Performance and Pressure Fluctuation for a Centrifugal Pump with Inlet Guide Vanes
The energy performance and pressure fluctuations in a centrifugal pump with inlet guide vanes (IGVs) are investigated experimentally and numerically in a prewhirl angle range of −24° to 24° and in an axial distance range of 280 mm, 380 mm, and 460 mm. The reliability and accuracy of the numerical me...
