Effect of Virtual Mass Force on the Mixed Transport Process in a Multiphase Rotodynamic Pump
To explore the effect of virtual mass force, the unsteady two-phase flow in a multiphase rotodynamic pump impeller was numerically simulated, where the inlet gas void fraction was 4.9%, 14.9%, and 25.2%, respectively. The drag force and the virtual mass force were accounted for and the cases with an...
