Abstract：In order to improve numerical calculation accuracy and verify Fluent software feasibility of stamping well pump. The 4SP8 stamping submersible well pump was numerically simulated based on Fluent software and technological features of stamping pump. Numerical calculation of different stages of stamping well pump model was carried out for different grid number, convergence precision, roughness, turbulence models and algorithms. The most suitable set method of numerical simulation for stainless steel stamping submersible well pump was achieved to compare prediction performance with experimental results. The results show that standard k-ε turbulence model and SIMPLEC algorithm are most appropriate to make numerical calculation for the whole flow field of two-stage stainless steel well pump at the conditions with grid size of 1.4 mm, convergence precision of 10-5 and roughness of 0 mm. The difference between simulation data and experimental data is small with almost the same trend. The study is instructive to the numerical simulation of stainless steel stamping submersible well pump.
