Effects of Flow Rate and Viscosity on Slip Factor of Centrifugal Pump Handling Viscous Oils by Wen-Guang Li

“…In the present paper, the flip factor was estimated by means of two approaches: one is from the velocity triangles at the impeller outlet and the other is due to the impeller theoretical head of 3D turbulent viscous fluid. The velocity of water and viscous oils in the impeller and volute computed by CFD was validated with LDV measurements at the best efficiency point. …”
