Simulations and external characteristics experiments are carried out. Static pressure and the vapor volume fraction distributions on the inducer and the impeller of the pump under various operation conditions are obtained. The results show that the cavitation developments on the impeller and on the inducer with the flow rates are reverse, while the development of the inlet pressure on the inducer and the impeller is the same. Cavitation on the impeller increases with the increase of flow rates, and it extends to the near passages with rotating, while cavitation on the inducer is more complex than that on the impeller. Cavitation at the inlet of the inducer decreases with the increase of flow rates, while cavitation at the outlet of the inducer is opposite. The results also show that cavitation development on the impeller and on the inducer with the inlet pressure is the same. Cavitation both decreases with the increase of the inlet pressure at the same flow rate. Furthermore, asymmetric cavitation on the impeller and on the inducer is both observed. And the asymmetric degree of cavitation on the impeller is higher than that on the inducer.展开更多
