This paper concerns efficiency improvement of an 8-in. mixed-flow irrigation pump by modification of discharge flow channel. First, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling was validated with the experimental results using an available pump. Next, an investigation on the hydrodynamics structure was carried out by CFD. The investigation revealed large recirculation around the inner annulus area next to the impeller exit plane and jet flow around the pipe wall. This leads to formation of a strong shear layer between jet and recirculation flow. Improvements were realized by reducing the impeller size by 10% to increase the flow cross-sectional area between the impeller exit plane and the tube wall to slow down the jet flow. Bluff body was introduced at the inner annulus adjacent to the discharge flow channel to alleviate a recirculation wake region. The operating speed of the scaled-down impeller was increased from 900 to 1,100 rpm to compensate for the scaling effect, and the blade angle was modified to cope with the change of inlet relative flow angle. Experimental study suggested that more than 10% improvement could be achieved through these modifications. The maximum efficiency of the proposed model was 42%, compared with the maximum efficiency of 37% for the conventional model.

Evaluation phase which was partial fulfilment of the beginning phase of "Development of Performance test rig and Efficiency improvement of impeller in Thai irrigation pump project" is presented in this paper. Overall flow field in the pump system that consisted of inlet, impeller and stator vane of the available pump was analyzed using commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code. The goal of this investigation is to obtain more understanding of energy dissipation which results from shear stress that developed within the flow field in each section of the pump. The improvement measure is then conducted with the concern of manufacturing difficulties. High dissipation flow structure was observed around the impeller outlet. Jet-wake and recirculation flow were observed. The first improvement measure was conducted by adding the bluff body in the flow channel to alleviate jet-wake structure and delay flow separation. After the implementation of the optimized bluff body around the impeller exit, CFD results indicated around 3-8% improvement compared with the CFD results of the available pump for the entire range of operating conditions.

The paper presents the design procedure of an axial flow irrigation pump. It was designed to deliver a flow rate of 9,000 L/min with a head of 4 m at the Best Efficiency Performance point (BEP). The target hydraulic efficiency was 75%. It started with the preliminary design which predefined the inlet and outlet blade angle of the impeller and the stator vane using a triangular velocity diagram. After that, the other components in the pump system which are the inlet bell, duct, and trailing cone were constructed in the Computer Aided-Design (CAD) software. Then, the flow structure of the pump system was obtained using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The impeller blade channel, guide vane profile, and the flow channel throughout the pump system were improved to attain target efficiency. This was done by awareness of the development of high velocity (jet flow) and low velocity wake (wake flow) along the entire flow channel. The blade profile was adjusted to minimize wake region while the high jet velocity was reduced. By continuously improving the blade profile, the final version’s hydraulic efficiency was 75.27%. The head was 5.68 m with the flow rate of 11,676 L/min.

Experiment and numerical modeling of stratified downdraft gasification using rice husk and wood pellet

Stratified downdraft gasification using rice husks and wood pellets was carried out under different air mass flow rates using both experimental and numerical methods. The flame propagation rate was calculated from the temperature profile at different time steps and was used as the prerequisite to calculate the equivalent ratio in modeling the combustion zone. Chemical equilibrium modeling was employed to predict the temperature and composition of the sample in the combustion zone. Finite kinetic modeling was used to simulate the reduction zone. The initial temperature and composition of the reduction zone simulation were obtained from the chemical equilibrium results taken from the combustion zone. The flame propagation speed of the rice husk was found to be around five times greater than wood pellet at the same air flow rate. The peak temperature of both fuels had similar values. For all air mass flow rates, the equilibrium modeling over-estimated the peaks in comparison with the experimental tests. The kinetic model was sensitive to the input temperature at the zone inlet. The predicted temperature in the reduction zone demonstrated high kinetic activity at the top of the zone due to a high gas temperature. The predicted temperature was in agreement with the experimental test results.

Non-equilibrium numerical modeling for combustion of LPG within porous media

A numerical model for lean premixed combustion of LPG (70% propane and 30% butane) within a porous inert medium was developed. Experiments were conducted at three different firing rates at the equivalent ratios of 0.4 and 0.6. The model was developed with the thermal non-equilibrium concept between phases and validated with three cases of experimental results. The discussion of model calibration was undertaken by focusing on the effects of the extinction coefficient and convection heat transfer effective area. Comparisons were made of the temperature profile, as well as the peak temperature, with the calculated adiabatic temperature. The model agreed well with experimental results and was robust throughout three firing rates. Moreover, it was found that the two aforementioned thermal parameters had different roles in temperature distribution, which provided insight on flame front location and heat transfer between phases within the porous domain.

The purpose of this work is developing the numerical 1D model of porous media combustion for investigating porous media burner systems. The software is used to solve energy, mass transfer and chemical reaction equation of the combustion. The operating condition and property parameters, which mainly affect the functions and quality of the industrial burner design, such as the inlet velocity of the reactants, the equivalence ratio, the extinction coefficient and the thermal conductivity of porous media, will be investigated and validated with experimental data. For developing the procedure of experiment, three diameter sizes of porous media materials (5 mm, 10 mm, and 15 mm.) were used. As a result, the developed model will be used as a tool to explore temperature distribution of heat exchange to improve thermal performance and overall efficiency system. Moreover, this knowledge can be applied to design porous media burner systems for uniform temperature distribution operation.
