Abstract

Every type of fluid to be transferred has specific characteristics such as viscosity, density, friction, and others, thus requiring the selection of the appropriate pump type. One of the factors influencing the performance of a centrifugal pump is the number of blades used. This research aims to explore the influence of the number of blades on a centrifugal pump used as a fluid transfer device for crude oil. The study was conducted using the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method. The analyzed variations of the number of blades included three options, namely centrifugal pumps with 12, 14, and 16 blades. Based on the simulation results conducted using Solidworks Research License 2021-2022 software, it was found that the centrifugal pump with 12 blades exhibited the most optimal performance. The simulation results show uniform flow and pressure around the mid-span plane of the 12-blade impeller. In the case of the 12-blade impeller, the flow thrown by the centrifugal force is concentrated in the middle of the channel towards the outlet, resulting in higher pressure and volume flow rates.

Abstract

The loss of oil fluid flow in the piping system in the petroleum industry due to friction is the cause of low efficiency. To reduce friction loss, the viscosity of petroleum can be lowered by adding water as a mixture. Actually, the flow loss in a piping system is influenced by several factors including flow pattern, fluid type, flow velocity, flow pressure and pipe diameter. This study aims to determine the effect of flow patterns on changes in velocity in the two-phase flow of oil and water in a piping system. This numerical analysis research was carried out using Fluent 6.2 software with variations in the velocity of the oil-water mixture: 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 m/s. The simulation results show that the greatest pressure loss occurs at a fluid velocity of 0.6 m/s where the flow is stratified mixed. While the smallest pressure loss at a mixture velocity of 0.2 m/s when the flow is stratified smooth. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the increase in fluid flow velocity has a positive correlation with the increase in the value of flow losses in the pipe.
