What are the takeaways for using the inverse design method to design your wastewater pump?

The automatic optimization of the impeller clearly showed that it is very easy to include meridional geometry parameters for expanding the bladetoblade passage, as well as the blade loading inputs to control its efficiency and cavitation performance.

The associated generality means that the blade loading obtained from optimization can be considered a best practice of sorts. The optimization itself is very quick and the pump performance improvement can be verified with both single and twophase cavitation CFD analysis.
