Electric submersible pump (ESP) is the core artificial lift equipment to pump production oil
from underground or deep sea to the surface. Its energy efficiency significantly affects global …

The high-speed rotation of impellers leads to strong rotor–stator interaction, which mainly
causes the pressure pulsation of centrifugal pumps. An impeller with a bionic sinusoidal …

Abstract Large-Eddy Simulations are conducted on a centrifugal pump at design and
reduced flow-rates for three diffuser geometries, to investigate the effect of changing the …

Abstract Large-Eddy Simulation is utilized to investigate the rotor–stator interaction within a
centrifugal pump. Comparisons are presented across diffuser geometries for two values of …

Liquid-liquid disperse multiphase flow in a baffled tank stirred by a Rushton turbine is
investigated by experiments and 3D simulations for different impeller speeds and volume …

Since energy dissipation caused by the complex solid-liquid two-phase flow is the main
reason for deep-sea mining pump efficiency degradation, this paper uses the entropy …

Six-stage centrifugal pumps are used in deep-sea mining lifting systems and are required to
convey slurry containing coarse particles. A six-stage centrifugal pump suitable for operation …

Flow simulations are performed on single-phase flow in a baffled tank stirred by a Rushton
turbine at a Reynolds number of 40 000. The flow physics are discussed, and the benefits of …

Three-dimensional liquid/gas flow mixture simulations of a centrifugal pump are performed
by a hybrid two-phase solver, which comprises a blending between a Volume-of-Fluid-like …

The effect of scale-adaptive simulations (SAS) on the droplet size distribution (DSD) is
assessed in a baffled stirred tank and compared with a classical statistical turbulence model …
