Transient response analysis of cantilever multistage centrifugal pump based on multi-source excitation

A stainless-steel cantilever multistage centrifugal pump was taken to study the transient response characteristic. The axial locus under different working conditions was tested experimentally and compared in detail. The results show that the gyroscopic effect increases the radial displacement located near the end element, and the amplitude of the radial displacement of the pump body increases with the development of unbalance mass. The dynamic sealing force of wear-ring could enhance the stability of the rotor system, and effectively reduce the amplitude of the radial displacement. The axis locus under variable flow rates is different when the fluid excitation was loaded. The increasing tendency of the maximal radial displacement appears exponential with the enhancement of fluid added mass when heterogeneous fluid added mass is taken into consideration. The experimental results exhibit that the axis locus is various under different working conditions, and there exists misalignment and eccentricity phenomenon in the multi-stage pump rotor system.
