In this study. an off-design performance prediction program for centrifugal pumps is developed. To estimate the losses in an impeller flow passage, two-zone model and two-element in series(TEIS) model are used. At impeller exit. the mixing process occurs with an increase in entropy. In two-zone model. there are both primary zone and secondary zone for an isentropic core flow and an average of all non-isentropic streamtubes respectively. The level of the core flow diffusion in an impeller was calculated by using TEIS model. While internal losses in an impeller an automatically estimated by using the above models, some empirical correlations far estimating external losses. far example, disk friction loss, recirculation loss and leakage loss are used. In order to analyze the vaneless diffuser flow. the momentum equations for the radial and tangential directions are used and solved together with continuity and energy equations.

In this study, an off-design performance analysis procedure is developed based on Two-zone model and TEIS model. In Two-zone model, there are both primary zone and secondary zone for an isentropic core flow and an average of all non-isentropic streamtubes respectively. The level of the core flow diffusion in an impeller is calculated by using TEIS model which regards the impeller as two successive rotating elements in series. At impeller exit, the mixing process occurs with an increase in entropy, that is to say, a decrease in total pressure. In loss models including Two-zone and TEIS model, some empirical parameters have a great influence on overall performance curve. So these parameters' influences on the overall performance curve are investigated and compared with experimental data.

In this study, the performance prediction programs for centrifugal pumps are developed. To estimate the losses in the centrifugal pump impellers, two-zone model and TEIS(two elements in series) model are applied to the program. The basic concept of two zone model considers the primary zone that is an isentropic core flow and the secondary zone that is non-isentropic region at the impeller exit. The flows through two different zones mixed out at the impeller exit and the mixing process occurs with an increase in entropy, a decrease in total pressure. The level of the core flow diffusion in a impeller was calculated using TEIS(two elements in series) model. The effects of various parameters which are used in this program on the prediction of head and efficiency are discussed. The correlation curves to select the effectiveness of the primitive TEIS model were suggested according to the specific speed of the centrifugal pumps.

Recently TEIS model, Two-zone model aid Stanitz equations are often used for off-design performance prediction of centrifugal compressor and pump. The prediction results often agree well with experimental data. However these models and equations have some important variables which have a great influence on overall performance prediction me. But no systematic study about these variables has been performed. So, in this paper, a systematic study about these variables influence on overall performance prediction owe is peformed. Finally the meaning of the variables and the research to be undertaken are discussed.

In this research, we developed a computer code that designs a compressor impeller, which serves as an essential component of a vacuum cleaner, and predicted its performance. The TEIS model originally developed by Japikse(1985), and the mean line analysis m combined to design the centrifugal impeller optimally. In this program the inlet geometry is designed by using the mean line analysis, and with assumption of resonable exit blade angle, the optimal geometry is searched by means of TEIS model and iterative scheme. The performance of designed impeller was compared with experimental data, and the far-field noise by the rotating impeller is also predicted.

The mean-line method using empirical models is the most practical method of predicting off-design performance. To gain insight into the empirical models, the influence of empirical models on the performance prediction results is investigated. We found that, in the two-zone model, the secondary flow mass fraction has a considerable effect at high mass flow-rates on the performance prediction curves. In the TEIS model, the first element changes the slope of the performance curves as well as the stable operating range. The second element makes the performance curves move up and down as it increases or decreases. It is also discovered that the slip factor affects pressure ratio, but it has little effect on efficiency. Finally, this study reveals that the skin friction coefficient has significant effect on both the pressure ratio curve and the efficiency curve. These results show the limitations of the present empirical models, and more resonable empirical models are reeded.

In this research, we developed a computer program that designs a centrifugal impeller and diffuser, and predicts the far-field noise from the impeller. To design the impeller optimally, the TEIS model, which was originally developed by Japkise(1985), and the mean-line analysis are combined to predict the performance and design the optimal impeller simultaneously. The geometric configurations are provided by a GUI software (iDesignComp). The noise from impeller can be computed by the rapid loading procedure, which generates a surface between two blades and calculates the pressure distributions on the suction and pressure sides. The steady loading noise is computed by the rotating dipole source distribution via Ffowcs Williams & Hawkings equation.
