Abstract
In this paper, based on the Mixture model, the numerical computations of the internal flow field in a sewage pump are carried out. Through
numerical simulation, the turbulence flow characteristics in the sewage pump are obtained. Results show that when the particle diameter is 0.10 mm,
the solid-phase concentration on the volute surface is high, and the wear is more severe. When the particle diameters are 0.15 mm and 0.20 mm, the
solid-phase concentration on the volute surface is significantly higher, especially when the over-current cross-section enlarges constantly.
