Abstract
This research analyzes the impeller design performance that has been modified based on previous impeller designs. The previous impeller design used high engine power consumption due to the total head, so the modification of the impeller design is expected to reduce the engine power consumption. The existing design and the modified impeller design with the addition of the junction disc plate are used by this research. This research used experiment methods and theoretical methods to compare both of impeller design performances. The experiment method measures total head, fluid capacity, engine speed, and engine power consumption. The theoretical method analyzes actual fluid velocity, specific velocity, total suction head, NPSH, and pump efficiency. The results showed that the fluid flow rate was able to increase the efficiency of the centrifugal pump by 2.8%. The conclusion explains that the addition of a junction disc plate produces energy from a steady fluid flow rate to reduce the engine power consumption and escalation of pump efficiency.
