Pressure Fluctuation in a Vaned Diffuser Downstream from a Centrifugal Pump Impeller

Periodic flows downstream from a centrifugal pump impeller in vaneless and vaned diffusers were measured by using a single hole yawmeter and a phase-locked sampling method. The flows were also calculated by an inviscid flow analysis using the blade-surface singularity method. The periodic variations...
