Abstract

Water pump is a device used to transfer water from one point to another for some purpose.Impeller is a main component in water pump as it accelerates the flow of a fluid and increase the pressure inside to discharge water.Design of the impeller has a critical effect to the performance of a pump.The aim of this project is to improve pump performance by modify the blade design.The method proposed to improve pump performance is parameterization,which is varying the blade parameters. The blade parameters to be modified are number of blades, inlet blade angle and outlet blade angle.CFD simulation is a useful tool to analyse and visualise the internal flow of impeller.It conducts virtual test which no prototype is required for analysing.Due to that CFD simulation consumes less time and cost,most of the studies of pump flow and optimization of pump impeller utilize CFD analysis.
