SUMMARYSUMMARY
Blade angle () is ideally the angle between therelative velocity (V
r) and blade-tip velocity (u)
vectors To draw the vector diagram note that the blade-tip
velocity and relative velocity vector are in the
same rotational (clockwise or anticlockwise)direction. Third side of the triangle is the absolutevelocity vector which is in opposite direction.
Power = [blade velocity x tangential component ofabsolute velocity] inlet outlet
Flow ~ Rotor circumference x width x Normalvelocity

What we have learnt
Blade angle () is ideally the angle between the relativevelocity (Vr) and blade-tip velocity (u) vectors
To draw the vector diagram note that the blade-tip velocityand relative velocity vector are in the same rotational
(clockwise or anticlockwise) direction. The arm of the
triangle is the absolute velocity vector which is in oppositedirection.
Power = [blade velocity x tangential component of absolute

Effect of blade configuration on
Performance Depending upon the value of exit blade angle the
head increases or decreases with increase in flow
Energy transfer ~ Vt2. From velocity diagram, fora given tip velocity, u forward & radial curve
blades transfer more energy
Backward blades give higher efficiency
Forward and radial are smaller in size for the sameduty, but have lower efficiency
Centrifugal compressor uses radial blades for
better strength against high speed rotation

Example
1. A centrifugal pump impeller is 255 mm diameter, thewater passage 32 mm wide at exit, and the vane angle atexit 30. The effective flow area is reduced by 10%
because of vane thickness. The manometric efficiency is80% when the pump runs at 1000 rpm and delivers 50litre/s.
Calculate the manometer head measured between inletand outlet flange of the pump assuming 47% of thedischarge head is not converted into pressure head.
Assume the pump delivers maximum head.
