Definitions
- the invention relates to a centrifugal pump arrangement with a flydraulic housing having an inlet opening for sucking in a pumped medium and an outlet opening for ejecting the pumped medium, wherein at least two inlet ribs are provided in the inlet opening with one end facing the delivery flow flowing into the inlet opening and one end facing away from the delivery flow .
- the housing or inflow parts of centrifugal pumps are often equipped with so-called inlet ribs.
- Their task is, on the one hand, to reduce the so-called pre-swirl or part-load vortices, and on the other hand to ensure an almost axial inflow.
- One advantage that comes with this is the stable development of the delivery height characteristics. Instabilities are almost completely prevented at partial load and overload. Furthermore, a break in the characteristic curve in the case of disproportionately large volume flows is counteracted, which increases the range of application of the pump. A relatively wide geometry of the inlet ribs with pronounced curves on the upper side is essential for this.
- inlet ribs A suitable choice of rib size, rib geometry and number of ribs is decisive for the proper function of the inlet ribs.
- inlet or suction flange diameter of up to DN100, two opposing ribs are used.
- three ribs are usually used, which are offset by 120°.
- Inlet ribs also have a significant influence on the cavitation behavior of the impeller and thus significantly influence the NPSH value. Therefore, both the number and the geometric design as well as the aerodynamic profile of these ribs are of great importance, since otherwise unfavorable NPSH values are the result.
- DE 1 161 481 B describes a device for stabilizing the characteristic (VH characteristic) of centrifugal wheel machines in which the inlet is provided with an additional rib in order to improve the part-load operating behavior and reduce the part-load characteristic instability.
- the primary goal is not to improve the NPSH value.
- US Pat. No. 2,219,390 A describes an impeller that is installed in a housing with inlet ribs, the inlet ribs not having any particular characteristics with regard to NPSH optimization.
- the object of the invention is to develop an NPSH-friendly solution for inlet ribs, which avoids the above-mentioned disadvantages and risks with the simplest production technology.
- the solution according to the invention provides that the thickness profile of the at least two inlet ribs changes from the end facing the conveying flow to the end facing away from the conveying flow. It is particularly advantageous that both the number and position of the inlet ribs and their original dimension in terms of length and height can be retained. As a result, the advantages described above with regard to pre-swirl and part-load vortices continue to be ensured. Only the configuration of the rib thickness has to be adjusted.
- the configuration of the rib thickness and the optimization of the thickness profile result in an optimized profile in terms of suction technology, which avoids cavitation at the start of the rib and leads to the suction flow being applied to the inlet rib.
- As a result less energy is withdrawn from the sucked liquid flow, which would otherwise convert into cavitation, but now remains in the medium.
- By suppressing cavitation and the associated cavitation bubbles a severe narrowing of the usable flow cross section is prevented.
- an increased feed rate with concurrent static pressure drop is also avoided. The result is an improved suction capability of the pump.
- the thickness profile of the inlet ribs changes from the start of the rib to the end of the rib, namely in the form of a fish-belly profile, in order to improve the contact of the suction flow with the inlet rib.
- the thickness of the inlet rib increases along a skeleton line up to a defined relative length of the profile in a parabola-like manner and from there to the end facing away from the flow.
- Such a geometry can be reproduced in the casting process, for example.
- the inlet ribs can also be machined mechanically to achieve the required geometry.
- the start of the rib is rounded in order to avoid or minimize the occurrence of rib cavitation at the start of the rib.
- the rib end is designed with a radius that is as small as possible in order to take the fish belly profile into account as best as possible and to improve the outflow of the fluid.
- a sharp-edged design of the ribs has proven to be particularly advantageous.
- the relative profile thickness advantageously reaches a value of 0.060 for a relative profile length of 0.25.
- the thickness profile of the inlet ribs may deviate constantly over the entire length of the inlet ribs by a specific thickness factor from the ideal thickness profile of the inlet ribs.
- the thickness factor is calculated as follows: 1+(thickness deviation of the profile for NPSH inlet rib in % / 100%).
- a maximum thickness factor of 1.3 has proven to be particularly advantageous in investigations and test runs.
- Fig. 3 is a schematic representation of the ideal profile of the inlet rib in centrifugal pumps.
- Fig. 1 shows a sectional view of an exemplary pump arrangement in the form of a centrifugal pump with a housing 1.
- the housing 1 comprises a hydraulic housing 2, a housing cover 3 and a bearing bracket 4.
- the hydraulic housing 2 has an inlet opening 5 for sucking in a pumped medium and an outlet opening 6 for ejecting the pumped medium.
- At least two inlet ribs 7 are provided in the area of the inlet opening 5 .
- a shaft 8 extends from a limited by hydraulic housing 2 and housing cover 3 flow chamber 9 through the housing cover 3 and through the bearing carrier 4, which is attached to the housing cover 3 on the side facing away from the flow chamber 9 th side.
- a housing cover 3 is arranged close to the first bearing 10 and a housing cover 3 distant from the second bearing 11, which supports the shaft 8.
- the shaft 8 has an axially extending axis of rotation A and carries at a first end 12 an impeller 13 which rotates about the axis of rotation A together with the shaft 8 .
- the impeller 13 is located in the flow chamber 9 delimited by the hydraulic housing 2 and the housing cover 3.
- a second end 14 of the shaft 8 opposite the first end 12 extends out of the bearing carrier 4.
- a motor is provided at the free end 14 extending out of the bearing carrier 4, which rotates the shaft 8 about the axis of rotation A rotatably drives.
- the impeller 13 is designed as a radial impeller.
- FIG. 2 shows the hydraulic housing 2 with two inlet ribs 7 profiled according to the invention with an end 15 facing the delivery flow Fs flowing into the inlet opening 5 and an end 16 facing away from the delivery flow.
- Fig. 3 shows a schematic representation of a thickness profile 17 of the inlet rib 7 according to the invention from the end 15 facing the delivery flow Fs along a skeleton line X to an end 16 facing away from the delivery flow.
- the skeleton line X runs essentially parallel to the axis of rotation A.
- the thickness of the inlet rib 7 increases along the skeleton line X in a parabola shape up to a defined relative length of the profile and then decreases again towards the end 16 facing away from the delivery flow Fs.
- the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.016, with a relative profile length of 0.025, the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.027, with a relative profile length of 0.05, the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.035, with a relative profile length of 0.1, the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.048, with a relative profile length of 0.15, the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.054, with a relative profile length of 0.2, the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.059, with a relative profile length of 0.25, the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.060 , with a relative profile length of 0.3 the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.058, with a relative profile length of 0.4 the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.055, with a relative profile length of 0.5 the relative profile thickness reaches a value of 0.051, with a relative profile length of 0.6 the relative profile thickness reaches a value of
- the rib end is preferably designed with sharp edges.
- the inlet rib 7 has a typical fish-belly profile.
- Such an optimized profile helps to avoid cavitation at the start of the ribs and ensures that the fluid flow rests against the inlet rib 7.
- Fliering means that less energy is withdrawn from the sucked-in liquid flow Fs, which would otherwise convert into cavitation, but now remains in the medium.
- an increased feed rate with concurrent static pressure drop is also avoided. The result is an improved suction capability of the pump.
- the inlet ribs 7 can be produced, for example, with the casting of the hydraulic housing 2 and/or by means of additive manufacturing. However, the inlet ribs 7 can also be attached to the hydraulic housing 2 subsequently by welding or another fastening method.
