Popis: Pressure pulsations are crucial data within the flow field of a pump, and the characteristics of these pulsations can reveal changes in the internal flow. Based on model experiments, this paper obtained pressure pulsation data under two blade conditions and compared direct time-domain observations, peak-to-peak value changes, and the VMD decomposition method. The results show that even when it is known that one blade condition has changed, it is not possible to determine this through direct observation of pressure pulsation changes. The peak-to-peak value changes indicate that under special flow conditions, they are easily affected by different operating conditions, which can interfere with the results. In contrast, the VMD method, which decomposes the signal into low-frequency components, can better display anomalies within the pressure pulsation cycle and is less susceptible to the interference of flow conditions, offering some reference significance for diagnosing the blade operating conditions of the main pump.
