摘要 The objective of present work is to find out the sources of fluidborne noise in vertical inline pump for various flow rates. The threedimensional unsteady Reynolds Average Navier Stokes equation is solved using computational fluid dynamics code to predict the acoustic distribution. The pump chosen for study is of low specific speed and the experimental performance characteristic is very well matched with computational head developed. PROUDMAN sound power contour analysis shows the critical zone of noise in inlet pipe, impeller, and volute. Based on this, the variations of acoustic power were depicted over the cross section of inlet pipe, along the mean streamline of inlet pipe, as well along the volute circumference . The result concludes that the predominant flow noise is at tongue region and followed by noise generated due to turbulence in inlet pipe which occurs by the sudden variation in flow passage as well it depends on the operating condition of pump. The frequency analysis gives a glimpse of understanding about the broadband noise distribution due to flow phenomenon over a frequency range were discussed.
