Based on the modern design method of CFD performance prediction, a modified vibration-reducing design of the pump was performed. The CFD performance prediction results of the improved scheme show that the instability of the flow in the pump has been significantly improved.

Centrifugal pumps are used extensively in ships' air conditioning cold water systems, bilge ballast systems, circulating water systems, fire fighting systems, drainage systems, and domestic water systems. Marine centrifugal pumps are prone to large vibration noise due to improper design, processing, and operating conditions, which pose a threat to the safe use of the equipment and cause damage to the health of the operation and management personnel.

According to statistics, centrifugal pumps have become the main source of mechanical radiation noise. In addition, due to the vibration of the water pump, the efficiency of the water pump and the head and flow rate will also be reduced. In order to make the centrifugal pump run smoothly and reduce cabin noise, it is urgent to develop a low-vibration centrifugal pump for ships.

This article takes a certain type of marine centrifugal pump as an example, analyzes the current status and causes of the vibration of the pump, proposes the main improvement measures, and verifies the improved scheme with the numerical simulation analysis method.

1 Overview The object of this study is a marine centrifugal pump used to transport air-conditioning refrigerant water for all ships. The pump is mainly composed of a pump body, a bearing, a pump shaft, an impeller and a motor. The outline diagram is as shown.

The main parameters of a marine centrifugal pump are its flow parameters: flow rate 100t/h; head 53m out of 0; necessary NPSH 4.9m; motor speed 2980r/min; motor power 22kW. The sum is the typical vibration spectrum of the pump foot.

Unit Foot Vibration Typical Line Spectrum Unit Foot Vibration Typical 1/3 Octave Spectrum 2 Cause Analysis Centrifugal pumps are rotary fluid machines that vibrate for a variety of reasons during operation. When a marine centrifugal pump is operated, it will be affected by two kinds of vibrations, one is self-excited vibration and the other is environmental vibration. Spectral analysis based on spectrograms is an effective way to analyze vibration violations.

2.1 Spectrum Analysis The pump's rated speed is 2980r/min, so the rotor's rotation frequency is: /=2980/60=49.67(Hz). From the sum can be found: 1) in the high frequency range (4kHz ~ 10kHz range) The vibration of the pump is very high and it is growing. Therefore, the main source of the vibration of the pump is the fluid excitation vibration; 2) At the integral multiple frequency of the rotor rotation frequency, the peak of the vibration acceleration spectrum appears, the reason for this phenomenon is that the rotor rotation is unbalanced; 3) exists on the spectrogram. There are some peaks that are not significantly related to the rotor speed frequency.

This may be due to other reasons, such as poor bearing housing structure, insufficient strength of the base plate, rough manufacturing of the impeller and pump, installation problems, and the like.

Mechanical engineering (on page 71 of the previous page) should pay attention to accurately obtain the propeller's radial moment of inertia, pole moment of inertia, moment of inertia, and the coefficient of attached water.

The calculation of the cyclonic vibration is a necessary work for the determination of the niobium bearing in the shafting design. In the multi-support shafting system, the greatest impact on the swirling vibration is the bearing spacing, which increases the bearing spacing and reduces the critical speed. In addition, for the controllable propeller propulsion shafting, increasing the hollowness of the shafting can increase the critical rotational speed and thus leave the resonance region.

4 Conclusions The design of the propeller propulsion shaft of the ship's controllable pitch propeller is a very complex comprehensive project. The design of the plan directly determines the pros and cons of the ship's power plant. When designing pitch-adjusting propeller shafting systems, the coordination of various internal and external interfaces and the determination of various technical parameters need to be repeatedly coordinated with marine engineers and hull engineers, and balanced and reasonable arrangements must be made in an integrated manner in order to design a safe, reliable, process-friendly system. Ship shafting.

Guide Strip

Guide strip also know as wear strip and hard strip, is a low-friction guide strip made from fabrice reinforced polyester resin, a high-compressive strength composite. This guide strip is substantially stronger than polyamide-based materials and offers considerably lower water absorption.
Guide strip/ring have an important place in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. If there are radial loads in the ysytem and no protections are provided, sealing elements do not function and also there may be permanent damage for the cylinder. Our guide strip are produced with PTFE filled with 40% Bronze, standard smooth surface or structuralization coining surface for options.
