- Description:
- The paper deals with a modeling of a flow in hydraulic parts of a turbo machine operating in a pump and in a turbine mode. The results are Q-H (Q-Y) performance characteristics of the pump operating in both modes. An important piece of knowledge is a shift of the pump‘s and turbine‘s BEP and the change of specific speeds of the turbo machine in a pump and in a turbine mode, which emerges from it. The goal of this paper was to find a shift of pump‘s and turbine‘s BEP and to obtain information about hydraulic efficiency of the pump operating in a pump and turbine mode. Anyway the aim of CFD simulation is to evaluate Q-H (Q-Y) characteristic from the point of view of a stability of Q-H curve. The analysis of flow patterns in the impeller and in the vane diffuser in a pump and turbine mode is a valuable contribution to the topic of a hydraulic interaction between an impeller and a vane diffuser. and Obsahuje seznam literatury
