Numerical analysis for the effect of tip clearance in a low specific speed mixed-flow pump

To study the influence of tip clearance on performance (external characteristics, pressure fluctuation and tip loss) of a low specific speed mixed-flow pump, unsteady simulation was performed for the whole flow passage with five tip clearance sizes ( δ 0  = 0 mm, δ 1  = 0.10 mm, δ 2  = 0.25 mm, δ 3...
