Centrifugal Pump Simulation
In this project, you will be cleaning up the geometry and setting up the case in Converge Studio by providing appropriate boundary conditions.You will get exposed to very strong features of fixed embedding, volume refinement, boundary layer generation which are really important as it gives user, a very good control on the cell count and cell count can easily be optimized using these features.Finally, you will be running the simulation in parallel to analyze the results and you will be much more interested in capturing the flow physics correctly i.e flow near the tip of the vanes of the impeller, flow separation in the outlet runner etc. You will be making use MS - EXCEL to create meaningful plots like Mass flow rate Vs Total Pressure ratio and mass flow rate Vs Efficiency. Also, you will be doing few pen and paper calculations to calculate the Pump efficiency, Hydraulic power and Shaft power.
