    1 Euler Equation

    Uploaded by

    Omar Ahmed
    This document discusses classifications of hydraulic machines and rotodynamic machines. It begins by classifying rotodynamic machines into three categories: axial flow machines where flow is perpendicular to the impeller axis, centrifugal machines where flow enters axially but exits radially in the plane of impeller rotation, and mixed flow machines. It then discusses the complex three dimensional flow through an impeller and one-dimensional flow assumptions for centrifugal impellers. Finally, it applies Euler's equation to analyze flow for both centrifugal and axial flow machines.

    1. Classification of Hydraulic Machines
    2. Classification of Rotodynamic Machines

    All rotodynamic machines, have a rotating part called the impeller, through which the
    fluid flow is continuous. The direction of fluid flow in relation to the plane of impeller
    rotation distinguishes different classes of rotodynamic machines.

    1. One possibility is for the flow to be perpendicular to the impeller and, hence, along
    its axis of rotation. Machines of this kind are called axial flow machines.

    2. In centrifugal machines (sometimes called ‘radial flow’), although the fluid


    approaches the impeller axially, it turns at the machine’s inlet so that the flow
    through the impeller is in the plane of the impeller rotation.

    3. Mixed flow machines


    2. Classification of Rotodynamic Machines
    3. Theory of Rotodynamic Machines

    The real flow through an impeller is three dimensional, that is to say the velocity of the
    fluid is a function of three positional coordinates, say, in the cylindrical system, r, θ and z,
    as shown in the below figure. Thus, there is a variation of velocity not only along the
    radius but also across the blade passage in any plane parallel to the impeller rotation.
    Also, there is a variation of velocity in the meridional plane, i.e. along the axis of the
    impeller. The velocity distribution is, therefore, very complex and dependent upon the
    number of blades, their shapes and thicknesses, as well as on the width of the impeller and
    its variation with radius.
