Abstract
In recent years, technologies to manufacture high cost performance products in shorter periods of time have become considerably necessary in the manufacturing industry in general, to meet drastic changes in the market needs and the reduction of development cost. In response to this trend, our corporate facility actively makes use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis in studying fluid flow in turbomachinery such as pumps, which are our main products. This report introduces an examination of the prediction of pump cavitating performance by using CFD code
