摘要
The flow within the annular jet pump (AJP), in some degree, resembles the annular wall jet developing in a pipe with great axial pressure gradient. In some working conditions, there exists the backflow near the centerline. However this differs from the case in a center jet pump (CJP) that the recirculation emerges near the inner wall of the throat. The recirculation in AJP affects a lot to its performance, especially when AJP is utilized to convey something alive, such as fish. This paper aims to numerically study the impact of two parameters, the flow ratio M and the area ratio A, on the location, size and formation of the recirculation in AJP. After being validated by the experimental results, the RNG k-E > turbulent model was adopted. It is found that: (1) As M increases, the width and height of the recirculation in AJP decreases, and the separation point of the recirculation shifts gradually far away from the nozzle exit while the reattachment point slightly moves; (2) As A becomes larger, the width and height of the recirculation enlarged, with M keeping constant; (3) For AJP with constant A, the recirculation emerges when M declines to a critical value, and the value varies linearly with A; (4) The Craya-Curtet number C (t) and the momentum ratio J, which take A and M into whole consideration, are also feasible in describing the disappearance of the recirculation. However the critical value of C (t) and J are different from that discovered in CJP.
