The discharge coefficients of the throat tap flow nozzle based on ASME PTC 6 are measured in wide Reynolds number range from Red=5.8×104 to Red=1.4×107. The nominal discharge coefficient (the discharge coefficient without tap) is determined from the discharge coefficients measured for different tap diameters. The tap effects are correctly obtained by subtracting the nominal discharge coefficient from the discharge coefficient measured. Finally, by combing the nominal discharge coefficient and the tap effect determined in three flow regions, that is, laminar, transitional and turbulent flow region, the new equations of the discharge coefficient are proposed in three flow regions.

Turbulent flow inside the seal chamber of a pump operating at high Reynolds number is investigated. The K−ε turbulence model posed in cylindrical coordinates was applied for this purpose. Simulations are performed using the fractional approach method. The results of the computer code are verified by using the FLUENT and by comparing to published results for turbulent Taylor Couette flow. Numerical results of four cases including two rotational speeds with four flush rates are reported. Significant difference between the laminar and the turbulence flow in the seal chamber is predicted. The behavior of the turbulent flows with very high Reynolds number was also investigated. The physical and practical implications of the results are discussed.
