Description:
Experiments on runaway characteristics were conducted for two sets of tubular pump systems and two sets of vertical axial pump systems. The measurement results show that at different blade angles the unit runaway speeds are different and increase with the increase of the blade angle. For the same pump system at the same blade angle the unit runaway speeds decrease with decrease of reverse-water-head of the system. The different outflow passages of pumps also caused variation of the unit runaway speeds. Through the calculation of resistance torque the variable factors of runaway speed with same blade angle are analyzed under different operation conditions of reverse-water-head. It is evident that the unit runaway speed obtained from model pump system is applicable and safe for conversion to prototype pump system.
