The unsteady wake characteristic of a plunger pump refers to the flow pattern and behavior of fluid in the wake region behind the piston as the piston moves back and forth within the pump cylinder. The following are some key aspects to consider regarding the unstable wake characteristics of a piston pump: 1. Flow Separation: As the piston moves in the pump cylinder, the fluid in the wake region experiences changes in flow direction and velocity. At certain piston positions, flow separation may occur, where fluid separates from the piston surface, creating vortices and recirculation zones in the wake region. Flow separation results in energy loss, increased pressure fluctuations, and reduced pump efficiency. 2. Vortex shedding: The unstable movement of the piston will cause the shedding of the vortex in the wake area. These vortices are created due to the interaction between the piston and the fluid, creating an alternating flow structure. Vortex shedding can cause flow instability, pressure fluctuations, and potential noise generation in the pump. 3. Pressure pulsation: The unstable wake characteristics of the plunger pump may cause pressure pulsation in the pump system. Pressure changes occur as fluid flows around the piston and encounters a vortex or recirculation zone in the wake region. These pressure pulsations can affect the overall performance of the pump, cause vibration and affect system reliability. 4. Piston acceleration effect: The acceleration during the piston movement affects the characteristics of the unsteady wake. The rate of change of piston velocity affects the flow pattern and vorticity development in the wake region. Rapid acceleration or deceleration can exacerbate flow separation, vortex shedding and pressure pulsation. 90-R-100-KA-1-BC-80-S-4-S1-F-00-GBA-23-23-20 90R100KA1BC80S4S1F00GBA232320 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-3-C7-D-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD60L3C7D03GBA424224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-3-C7-F-03-GBA-14-14-20 90R100KA1CD60L3C7F03GBA141420 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-3-F1-E-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD60L3F1E03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-3-F1-F-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD60L3F1F03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-3-S1-E-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD60L3S1E03GBA424224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-3-S1-F-03-GBA-29-29-24 90R100KA1CD60L3S1F03GBA292924 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-3-T2-E-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD60L3T2E03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-00-GBA-26-26-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E00GBA262624 90R100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-26-26-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA262624 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-26-26-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA262624 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-30-30-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA303024 90R100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-30-30-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA303024 90R100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-32-26-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA322624 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-32-26-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA322624 90R100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-32-32-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA323224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-32-32-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA323224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD60L4F1E03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-P-3-C7-E-03-GBA-23-23-24 90R100KA1CD60P3C7E03GBA232324 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-P-3-C7-E-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD60P3C7E03GBA424224 5. Valve dynamics: In a reciprocating plunger pump, valve dynamics (including opening and closing of inlet and outlet valves) interact with unsteady wake characteristics. Valve timing and flow rate affect the flow pattern and vorticity in the wake region, thereby affecting the overall performance and efficiency of the pump. 6. Pump geometry: The unsteady wake characteristics of a plunger pump may be affected by the pump geometry, including cylinder shape, piston profile, and chamber size. Geometry determines the flow path and interaction between the piston and the fluid, affecting flow separation, vortex shedding, and pressure pulsation. 7. Unsteady flow analysis: In order to study the unsteady wake characteristics of the plunger pump, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation and experimental techniques can be used. CFD simulations provide insight into flow patterns, vorticity, pressure fluctuations and wake behavior. Experimental techniques such as flow visualization, pressure measurements, and particle image velocimetry (PIV) can help validate and further understand unsteady flow phenomena. 8. Recirculation and mixing: The unsteady flow in the wake area of the plunger pump promotes the recirculation and mixing of fluids. As the piston reverses direction, the fluid previously in the wake region mixes with the incoming fluid. This mixing can affect flow uniformity, temperature distribution and transport of contaminants or particles within the pump. 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-P-3-C7-F-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD60P3C7F03GBA424224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-P-3-F1-E-03-GBA-35-35-20 90R100KA1CD60P3F1E03GBA353520 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-P-3-F1-F-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD60P3F1F03GBA424224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-P-3-T2-E-00-GBA-23-23-24 90R100KA1CD60P3T2E00GBA232324 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-R-3-T2-E-00-GBA-23-23-24 90R100KA1CD60R3T2E00GBA232324 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-R-4-F1-E-03-GBA-26-26-24 90R100KA1CD60R4F1E03GBA262624 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-R-4-S1-E-03-GBA-32-32-24 90R100KA1CD60R4S1E03GBA323224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-C7-E-03-GBA-32-32-20 90R100KA1CD60S3C7E03GBA323220 90R100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-C7-F-04-GBA-42-42-28 90R100KA1CD60S3C7F04GBA424228 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-C7-F-04-GBA-42-42-28 90R100KA1CD60S3C7F04GBA424228 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-F1-E-00-GBA-23-23-24 90R100KA1CD60S3F1E00GBA232324 90R100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-F1-E-03-GBA-29-29-24 90R100KA1CD60S3F1E03GBA292924 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-F1-E-03-GBA-29-29-24 90R100KA1CD60S3F1E03GBA292924 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-F1-E-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD60S3F1E03GBA424224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-S1-E-02-GBA-26-26-30 90R100KA1CD60S3S1E02GBA262630 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-3-T2-E-00-GBA-23-23-24 90R100KA1CD60S3T2E00GBA232324 90R100-KA-1-CD-60-S-4-C7-E-00-GBA-36-36-24 90R100KA1CD60S4C7E00GBA363624 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-4-C7-E-00-GBA-36-36-24 90R100KA1CD60S4C7E00GBA363624 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-4-C7-E-00-GBA-38-38-24 90R100KA1CD60S4C7E00GBA383824 90R100-KA-1-CD-60-S-4-C7-E-00-GBA-38-38-24 90R100KA1CD60S4C7E00GBA383824 9. Backflow and backflow: The erratic movement of the piston can cause backflow and backflow in the wake area. During certain phases of the piston cycle, the direction of flow near the piston may temporarily reverse, causing fluid to flow back into the piston. Reverse flow and backflow affect fluid dynamics, increase energy losses, and can lead to fluid instability. 10. Fluid-solid interaction: The unsteady wake characteristics of a plunger pump involve fluid-solid interaction, where the motion of the piston interacts with the fluid flow. The force exerted by the fluid on the piston affects its motion, and the motion of the piston affects the flow behavior. Proper consideration of fluid-structure interaction is critical for accurate analysis and prediction of unsteady flow behavior. 11. Transient effects: The unsteady wake characteristic of a plunger pump exhibits transient behavior during transitions between different phases of piston motion. Transient effects include changes in flow velocity, pressure distribution, and vorticity patterns as the piston accelerates, decelerates, or changes direction. Understanding and managing these transient effects is important to maintaining stable pump operation and minimizing flow instabilities. 12. Influence on the efficiency and reliability of the pump: Wake instability has a great influence on the efficiency and reliability of the piston pump. Flow separation, vortex shedding, pressure pulsations, and other unsteady flow phenomena can lead to energy loss, increased wear on pump components, and potential damage to the pump system. Unsteady flow behavior is analyzed and optimized in order to increase pump efficiency, reduce maintenance requirements and extend pump life. 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-60-S-4-F1-F-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD60S4F1F03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-61-R-4-F1-F-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD61R4F1F03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-3-F1-D-03-GBA-35-35-20 90R100KA1CD80L3F1D03GBA353520 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-3-F1-F-03-GBA-29-29-20 90R100KA1CD80L3F1F03GBA292920 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-3-S1-E-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD80L3S1E03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-F1-D-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD80L4F1D03GBA353524 90R100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-14-14-24 90R100KA1CD80L4F1E03GBA141424 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-14-14-24 90R100KA1CD80L4F1E03GBA141424 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-17-17-24 90R100KA1CD80L4F1E03GBA171724 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-26-26-24 90R100KA1CD80L4F1E03GBA262624 90R100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD80L4F1E03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD80L4F1E03GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-F1-E-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD80L4F1E03GBA424224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-S1-E-03-GBA-20-20-24 90R100KA1CD80L4S1E03GBA202024 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-L-4-S1-F-03-GBA-40-40-24 90R100KA1CD80L4S1F03GBA404024 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-P-3-C7-E-00-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD80P3C7E00GBA353524 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-P-3-C7-E-00-GBA-38-38-24 90R100KA1CD80P3C7E00GBA383824 90R100-KA-1-CD-80-P-3-C7-E-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD80P3C7E03GBA424224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-P-3-C7-E-03-GBA-42-42-24 90R100KA1CD80P3C7E03GBA424224 90-R-100-KA-1-CD-80-P-3-C7-F-00-GBA-35-35-24 90R100KA1CD80P3C7F00GBA353524 13.
