摘要：Magnetic drive centrifugal pumps have compact structure and lower efficiency than ordinary centrifugal pumps. The surrogate-based optimization technique was applied to improve the performance of a high-speed magnetic drive pump with the help of numerical simulations. Eight geometrical parameters of the impeller were considered as the design variable. About 290 samples of impeller were generated by optimal Latin hypercube sampling (OLHS) method, and the corresponding efficiencies of all the impeller samplings were obtained from numerical simulation. The performance test of the prototype pump was carried out, and the experimental results were in good agreement with the numerical simulation results. The hydraulic efficiency at 1.2 Qd of the magnetic drive pump was set as the optimization objective. Using response surface methodology (RSM), surrogate models were established for the objective functions based on the numerical results. The multi-island genetic algorithm (MIGA) was used to optimize the impeller. The hydraulic efficiency of the optimal impeller at rated flow rate was 72.89%, which was 6.23% higher than the prototype impeller.
