Analisis Kinerja Pompa Sentrifugal pada Variasi Trim Diameter Menggunakan Simulasi Numerik

Abstract

Diameter trimming is one of the most common modification on centrifugal pump impeller aimed to keep conformity between pump performance and required head and flow rate. In its application, centrifugal pump performance with trimmed diameter could be predicted by using affinity equations which based on geometrical similarity between pre- and post-trimming impeller. However, diameter trimming also alter the dimension ratio in blade passage which prompt further investigation on performance prediction of pump with trimmed impeller diameter. This research is carried out by using numerical simulation to analyze performance of pump with trimmed impeller diameter. The simulation is conducted on radial-type centrifugal pump with impeller diameter 105 mm, inlet blade angle 200, outlet blade angle 280, and operating on mass flow rate 1.5 kg/s at rotational speed 2800 rpm. RNG k-e model is used to model turbulence while trimmed diameter values are 100 mm and 95 mm. Results indicate that there is significant differences on head and consumed power between predicted value by simulation and predicted value obtained by employing affinity equations.

Analisis Desain Bantalan Celana Untuk Penderita Hemoroid (Ambeien)

“…Dalam penelitian-penelitian sebelumnya, belum ditemukan analisis Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) dalam pemilihan desain terbaik yang dapat mengurangi nyeri pada penderita hemoroid dengan optimum. Penggunaan CAE sudah banyak digunakan untuk menyelesaikan berbagai permasalahan rekayasa teknik [16][17][18][19] , hal ini dikarenakan CAE memberikan keunggulan dalam hal kecepatan penyelesaian masalah yang relatif singkat dan biaya yang tidak mahal apabila dibandingkan dengan eksperimen.…”
