Energy Characteristics of a Bidirectional Axial-Flow Pump with Two Impeller Airfoils Based on Entropy Production Analysis

This research sought to determine the spatial distribution of hydraulic losses for a bidirectional axial-flow pump with arc- and S-shaped impellers. The unsteady Reynolds time-averaged Stokes (URANS) approach with the SST k-omega model was used to predict the internal flow field. The total entropy p...
