유압베인펌프는 토출유량이 많고 소형으로 동력밀도는 높으나 토출압력면에스는 피스톤식 펌프에 뒤지기 때문에 발생압력의 고압화에 대한 연구가 계속되어 왔다. 유압장치의 경제적인 압력으로서 $300kgf/cm^2$가 제시되어 있는 가운데, 유압베인펌프의 고압화의 연구가 진행중에 있는 점, 또한 최근들어 에너지 절약의 일환으로 펌프의 수명연장 문제가 거론되어 지고 있는 점, 물에 타기 어려운 난연성유압 작동유를 사용할 경우 마찰증대 및 마모성능이 저하하는 점 등의 이유에서 유압베인 펌프의 마찰, 윤활문제가 중요시 되어지고 있다. 특히 펌프의 체적효율을 높이는 것과 마찰, 마모를 저하시키는 것과는 서로 상반된 관계에 놓여있기 때문에 문제의 해결에 어려움을 갖고 있다. 이와같은 모순을 해결하기 위해서는 베인과 캠링사이의 슬라이딩부분의 윤활상태를 파악하지 않으면 안된다. 그러나 베인의 선단부에는 10-20ms의 짧은 시간동안에 수백기압의 압력이 변화하기 때문에 지금까지 확실한 작용력의 파악이 어려워 이 분야의 윤활상태 파악에 관한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 베인과 캠링간의 윤활상태를 윤활공학적 관점에서 보면 변동하중 상태에서의 슬라이딩 탄성유체윤활상태 또는 혼합윤활상태에 있는 것으로 판단되어지는데, 이와같은 여러가지 어려운 조건 때문에 윤활상태를 파악하는데, 어려운점이 뒤따르게 된다. 위와 같은 배경에 착안하여 본 연구에서는 유압베인펌프를 모델화하여 변동하중상태에서 실험이 가능한 장치를 제작, 사용하여 베인 선단 슬라이딩부분의 윤활상태를 파악하였다.

In this paper, the performance characteristics of the 2 vane pump for wastewater treatment were investigated using response surface method(RSM) with commercial computation fluid dynamics(CFD) software. Design variables of wastewater treatment pump were defined with the meridional plane of the 2 vane pump impeller. The objective functions were defined as the total head and the efficiency at the design flow rate. The hydraulic performance of optimum model was verified by numerical analysis and the reliability of the model was retained by comparison of numerical analysis and comparative analysis with the reference model.

In an oil hydraulic vane pump for an automobile, it is very important that the vane doesn't separate from the camring inner race during the operation of the vane pump. The vane generally has not only the oil hydraulic force acting on the bottom face to contact to camring inner race but there is also an inertial force and viscous force. Because the oil hydraulic force is much larger than the other forces, the contact state between the vane tip and the camring inner race is sufficient. However, the contact state between the vane tip and the camring inner race is only affected by the inertial and viscous forces during the delivery of the vane pump, because the oil hydraulic force acting on the vane is in equilibrium. If the inertial force is larger than the viscous force, which happens when the vane is separated from the camring inner race, the delivery of the vane pump can become unstable or the volume efficiency can become decrease rapidly. Therefore, in this paper, the state of the contact between the vane and the camring is considered. The results show that the rotating speed of the shaft, the operating temperature of the oil, the clearance between the vane and the rotor, and the mass of the vane exert a great influence on the state of the contact between the vane and the camring.

This paper describes a numerical study on the improvement of performance of the 2 vane pump impellers. The design of these impellers was optimized using a commercial computation fluid dynamics code and design of experiments. Geometric design variables were defined by the impeller blade angle distribution. The objective functions were defined as the total head, total efficiency and solid material size of the impellers. The importance of the geometric design variables was analyzed using 2^k factorial designs. The interaction between the total head, total efficiency and solid material size, according to the impeller blade angle distribution, is discussed by analyzing the 2^k factorial design results.

This paper deals with multi-objective optimization using response surface method to improve the hydraulic performances of a 2 vane pump for wastewater treatment. For analyzing the internal flow field in the pump, steady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations were solved with the shear stress transport turbulence model as a turbulence closure model. The impeller and volute variables were defined in the shape of the 2 vane pump. The objective functions were set to satisfy the total head at the design flow rate as well as to improve the efficiency. The hydraulic performance of the optimally designed shape was verified by numerical analysis results.

The numerical analysis and the experiments are carried out to develop the design program for the flow control valve attached to the vane pump for power steering. The factors affecting the flow rate characteristics are analyzed by the experiments and the numerical analysis. The results are summarized as follows; (1) the main factors affecting to the first and second control flow rate are the diameter of big and small rod of the spool. (2) the cut off is mainly affected by the main spring constant, the initial displacement of main spring and the small diameter of the spool. (3) the dropping slope characteristics are decided by the chamfer of spool and the dynamic characteristics of the spool.

This paper presents in experimental study of the dynamic internal pressure within an oil hydraulic vane pump. The measurements of the dynamic internal pressures near the vane of a pressure balance type of an oil hydraulic vane pump with intravanes has been made to provide the essential information for the study of the pump dynamics and control, the pump design and the analysis of tribological problems in the sliding components. The influences of the discharge pressure and rotating speed of the vane on the dynamic pressure in four chambers surrounding a vane have been investigated. The results indicate that the surge pressures of the chambers at the instant moment of discharge and closure are affected by the rotating speed. The pressure in the intravane chamber maintains almost constant values, which remarkably effects the pulsating discharge pressure.

The magnitude of the axial force acting on turbopump bearings has a great influence on the operational reliability and service life of a turbopump. In the turbopump under current investigation the cavity vanes are introduced to the pump shroud casing to control the axial thrust of the turbopump. To investigate the effect of the cavity vanes, 3D computational flow analyses for a propellant pump stage including an inducer, impeller, volute and secondary flow passages are performed with and without the vanes. The results show that the cavity vanes are very effective in reducing the magnitude of axial thrust without notable changes on the overall performance of the turbopump.

In the study, the inner flow characteristics were analyzed by modifying the inner design parameter of the vane-type vacuum pump. The effect of pressure generated by the inner flow of pump on the rotor and vane was analyzed. The design parameter was analyzed using the angle variation of tilting and rotation of the vane. MRF was used for the analysis conducted using a virtual condition where the rotor and vane are rotated. The pressure gained from the load of the rotor and vane in the flow analysis is used for the structure analysis. Based on the results, the effect of variable vane design was revealed in structural strength. The effect of centrifugal and friction force generated during pump operation on structural strength was also analyzed.
