Popis: The RANS equation and the RNG k-ε turbulence model were used in the three-dimensional non-constant numerical simulations of the full flow path of a vertical axial-flow pump which was carried out by applying CFX software. The velocity characteristics of the flow field and the pressure distribution of the impeller under different operating conditions were analyzed and verified by external characteristic tests. The fluid–structure interaction research was conducted for the stress distribution and deformation features of different surfaces of the blade under different working conditions. The result shows that where stress is most concentrated is at the point of the root of the blade near the hub. The low-pressure zone on the suction surface is mainly distributed near the rim, and the low-pressure area on the pressure side is mainly distributed near the hub.
