Multi-stage centrifugal pumps with floating impellers provide a convenient means of adjustment to meet diverse head requirements. These utilize sealing gaskets minimize leakage losses and restrict impeller axial motion. However, the impact gasket breakage on hydraulic performance internal flow remains uncertain. To investigate this, novel dynamic mesh simulation method is proposed enable simultaneous motion rotation impeller. Validation numerical simulations experiments performed. Transient influenced by motion, lagging field response. Head coefficient efficiency curves exhibit asymmetric triangular functions higher fluctuations compared fixed position. At design condition, floating, ranges from 0.7 1.9, while 29.7% 60.1%. Among various loss ratios, ratio exhibits highest magnitude, followed ratio, shroud friction being smallest. Entropy production reveals significant influence oscillation local loss. The causes drastic velocity pressure in both time space.

Large curvature, high pre-swirl large high-speed centrifugal fans are the preferred choice for industrial gas quenching furnaces, as they need to operate under non-uniform inlet conditions extended periods. The resulting distortion disrupts symmetric flow of gas, leading reduced fan stability and phenomena such separation rotational stall. This issue has become a key research focus in field applications. paper introduces an eddy viscosity correction method, compares it with experimental results from U-shaped pipe curved flow. corrected SST k-ω model shows maximum error only 4.7%. Simulation show that generates positive inflow relative intensity 3.83°. characteristics within impeller passage significantly affected by swirl angle distribution. At angle, leakage at blade tip develops into stall vortex spans entire passage, average blockage coefficient 0.29. minimum downstream is suppressed on suction side main flow, structure 0.21. To address design challenges distortion, method based secondary suppression proposed. Eleven surfaces selected control parameters, profile redesigned. Numerical simulations furnace’s temperature fields indicate modified reduces strength, decreasing 0.07 0.04, respectively. standard deviation velocity test section 42.78% compared original, fluctuation workpiece surface 53.09%. Both uniformity improved.
