Pumps are essential machinery in the various industries. With the development of high-speed and large-scale pumps, especially high energy density, high requirements have been imposed on the vibration and noise performance of pumps, and cavitation is an important source of vibration and noise excitation in pumps, so it is necessary to improve pumps cavitation performance. The modern pump optimization design method mainly adopts parameterization and artificial intelligence coupling optimization, which requires direct correlation between geometric parameters and pump performance. The existing cavitation performance calculation method is difficult to be integrated into multi-objective automatic coupling optimization. Therefore, a fast prediction method for pump cavitation performance is urgently needed. This paper proposes a novel cavitation prediction method based on impeller pressure isosurface at single-phase media. When the cavitation occurs, the area of pressure isosurface S_iso increases linearly with the NPSH_a decrease. This demonstrates that with the development of cavitation, the variation law of the head with the NPSH_a and the variation law of the head with the area of pressure isosurface are consistent. Therefore, the area of pressure isosurface S_iso can be used to predict cavitation performance. For a certain impeller blade, since the area ratio R_s is proportional to the area of pressure isosurface S_iso, the cavitation performance can be predicted by the R_s. In this paper, a new cavitation performance prediction method is proposed, and the feasibility of this method is demonstrated in combination with experiments, which will greatly accelerate the pump hydraulic optimization design.

The paper describes an approach for measuring delivery flow ripple generated by oil hydraulic axial piston pumps. In order to reduce pressure ripple which cause to undesirable noise. vibration and fatigue in hydraulic systems it is indispensible measure a delivery flow ripple from pumps. Since the flow ripple measurement of flow pumps is independent of the dynamic characteristics of the connected hydraulic circuit the measurement of flow ripple is most suitable for pump fluid-borne noise rating. The measurement of flow ripple with high frequencies from axial piston pumps is made by applying the remote instantaneous flow rate measurement method which is based on the dynamic characteristics between pressure and flow rate in hydraulic pipeline. The measured flow ripple waveforms are influenced by the configuration of V-shaped triangular relief groove in the valve plate. It can be seen that the appropriate relief groove in valve plate reduces the pressure and flow ripple amplitude and frequency spectrum for high harmonics.

This paper deals with pressure ripple attenuation far separated-type Hydrostatic Transmission (HST) consisting ova variable axial piston pump connected in an open loop to a fried displacement axial piston motor. Pressure ripples in HST is major source of vibration which can lead to fatigue failure of components and cause noise. In order to reduce the pressure ripple, an annular tube tripe hydraulic filter is proposed to attenuate pressure ripples with the high frequencies components to achieve better noise reduction in HST. The basic principle of a hydraulic filter is allied to propagation of pressure wave, reflection, absorption in cross section of discontinuity and resonance in the hydraulic pipeline. It is experimentally shown that the hydraulic filter attenuates about 30∼40dB of pressure ripple with high frequencies. These results will assist in modeling and design of noise reduction in hydraulic control systems, and provide a means of designing a quieter HST.

In this paper, an expansion-resonator type pulsation attenuator is proposed to absorb and attenuate flow an pressure ripple with high frequencies generated from hydraulic control systems. The basic principle of a pulsation attenuator proposed here is applied to propagation, reflection, absorption of pressure waves at the cross section of discontinuity and resonance in the pipeline. It has advantage of the compact size and high degree fo freedom for installation in hydraulic systems. The design scheme based on distributed parameter pipeline system with dissipative viscous compressible model is developed. To investigate the reduction of flow and pressure ripple with high frequencies produced by swash plate type axial piston pump, two kinds of attenuators are manufactured. It is experimently confirmed that the spectral intensity of flow and pressure ripple with high frequencies from the pump are reduced up to about 20$^{\circ}$~30dB by using attenuators proposed here. The calculated results were in good agreement with the measured values. From there sults of this study, it is shown that an expansion-resonator type pulsation attenuator is effective in a wide frequency ranges to attenuate the flow and pressure ripple from hydraulic components.

Traditional vacuum cleaner adoptsa highly rotating centrifugal impeller for generating suction region at lower pressure. The rotational speed is very high at 35,000 to 40,000 rpm and accessory structure such as a circular brush at the base plate of the cleaning devices is equipped for gathering dusts. Highly rotating impeller is effective for low pressure generation but causes noise problems. Recently, the unwanted noise is removed by installation of air-pump, instead of a centrifugal impeller, and the internal flows of the modified system are estimated in numerical and experimental approach, respectively.

A balanced vane pump for the use of automotive power steering systems generates a flow ripple which is imposed upon the mean flow rate. The flow ripple interacts with the characteristics of the connected pipes, valves and steering gear in a complex manner to produce a pressure ripple, also known as fluid-borne noise. In order to reduce vibration level and produce quieter and more reliable power steering systems, it is important to measure the flow ripple produced by a pump with high accuracy and fast response. In this paper, the flow ripple generated by a vane pump in automotive power steering systems is measured by the remote instantaneous flow rate measurement method (RIFM) using hydraulic pipeline dynamics. In experiment, flow and pressure ripple wave forms are measured under various operating conditions. Also, the parameters affected upon the flow and pressure ripple are investigated by the frequency analysis.

As related to rotordynamics, dynamic characteristics of the wear ring seal in high pressure multi-stage pump is calculated in the cases of labyrinth, damper and helically grooved types. The. results show that the labyrinth seal type has superior performance in the view point of leakage. However, in terms of rotordynamics view point, the damper seal type gains acceptable separate margin in critical speed range, while it has slightly inferior leakage performance compared to labyrinth seal type.

Liquefied Natural Gas takes up six hundredths of the volume of natural gas, which makes storage and transportation much easier. To send out natural gas via a pipeline network across the nation, high pressure LNG pumps supply highly compressed LNG to high-pressure vaporization facilities. The Number of high Pressure LNG pumps determined the send out amount in LNG receiving terminal. So it is main equipment at LNG production process and should be maintained on best conditions. In this paper, to find out the cause of high beat vibration at cryogenic pumps, vibration and motor current analysis have been performed. And high beat vibration of cryogenic pumps could be reduced due to the modification of motor rotor.

This paper describes the global vibro-acoustic troubleshooting approach, used to identify and separate different sources of noise and vibrations on a boilerfeed pump testrig. The pump serves for rotor dynamic research of a EC-funded BRITE-Euram profect. This approach resulted in the identification of local structural flexibilities in the connections between the machinery and the base plate. The relative importance of the modes during normal operation is revealed by comparison with operational deformation shapes. The use of sound intensity mapping allowed to calculate the total sound power and to rank the equipment according to its sound power contribution. High acoustic levels were found and related to the fluid drive and to the piping system. Modification of the piping section resulted in a reduction of noise and vibration levels along the test loop and smooth operation in a wide suction pressure range.
