slugPerformance Improvement of Vacuum Pump Through CFD Analysis

Abstract

In this study, water ring vacuum pump was numerically simulated and compared with experimentally measured data .To improve the efficiency of SUVAC V20 water ring vacuum pump, Computational Fluid Dynamics analysis is one of the advanced tool used in the pump industry. A detailed CFD analysis is used to predict the flow pattern inside the impeller which is an active pump component. Experimentally result of vacuum level of the pump is 450 mm of hg which is after CFD analysis 460 mm of hg, so deviation is 2.25% .So it is justified and validated with experiment result,therefore CFD analysis can use for further research for improvement in result of this WRVP.
