Abstract:In order to realize the self-priming for normal centrifugal pumps,a new self-priming equipment with simple structure was designed,which can be maintained conveniently and combined to centrifugal pump as a whole.The design of this equipment was based on the technique of self-priming tanks.A jetting-recycle system was added to the self-priming tank.When the pump starts,the equipment begins to work,which increases the speed of mixing gas and liquid in the pump inlet,as well as the separating speed in the pump outlet.So the self-priming time decreases significantly.The experimental results indicate that the new equipment can decrease the self-priming time evidently,the minimum self-priming time is just 11 s,and the performance curve is steady and smooth.The external characteristic of centrifugal pump is not influenced,the pump efficiency is decreased by 1.83% at design point.So the equipment can meet engineering needs.
