Curved surface processing method for inlet edge of cylindrical blade of centrifugal pump impeller
A curved surface processing method for an inlet edge of a cylindrical blade of a centrifugal pump impeller includes following steps. A center of an impeller is used as a center to draw circles having respective diameters. A first point having a first distance from the center is determined on a concave side curve at a top of the blade, and a second point having a second distance from the center is determined on a concave side curve at a bottom of the blade. By improving the shape of a blade in an impeller, the angle of an inlet edge at the top of the blade is more close to the tangent direction, and the inlet angle of the top blade is reduced. A twisted surface is formed between a first arc segment at the top and a second arc segment at the bottom.
1. A curved surface processing method for an inlet edge of a cylindrical blade of a centrifugal pump impeller, comprising the following steps:
step 1 : using a center of an impeller with existing cylindrical blades as a center to draw a first circle having a first diameter and a second circle having a second diameter, the first circle having the first diameter being an improved inlet position at a top of the cylindrical blade, and the second circle having the second diameter being an improved inlet position at a bottom of the cylindrical blade;
step 2 : determining a first point having a first distance from the center on a concave side curve at the top of the cylindrical blade, and determining a second point having a second distance from the center on a concave side curve at the bottom of the cylindrical blade;
step 3 : extending the concave side curve at the top of the cylindrical blade at the first point in a first tangential direction to obtain an extended curve and to draw a first arc segment, and then draw a third arc segment at which the extended curve is tangent to a convex side curve at the top of the cylindrical blade;
step 4 : extending the concave side curve at the bottom of the cylindrical blade at the second point in a second tangential direction to obtain an extended curve and to draw a second arc segment, and then draw a fourth arc segment at which the extended curve is tangent to a convex side curve at the bottom of the cylindrical blade; and
step 5 : smoothly transitioning from the third arc segment to the fourth arc segment with an arc surface using the third arc segment as a start and the fourth arc segment as an end, to make a radius of the fourth arc segment larger than a radius of the third arc segment, and form a draft angle from the bottom of the cylindrical blade to the top of the cylindrical blade.
