Abstract

Airlift pump is a device for raising water that is the simplest and easiest to assemble, it can even be easily found in the community because basically an airlift pump only requires two fluids, namely water and air which have a mass flow rate to raise the water. However, the airlift pump has a drawback, namely that its efficiency is still quite low, therefore, in this study, it is to determine the efficiency of the airlift pump discharge and also the phenomena that occur based on variations in the inlet mass flow rate and also variations in pipe diameter.This study aims to determine the output discharge and contour pressure and streamline velocity phenomena that occur in the airlift pump by using variations in nozzle diameter and variations in the mass flow rate of the incoming air. The process of designing the geometry of the airlift pump using Solidworks software is then simulated using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) based on ANSYS. The simulation is carried out using multiphase, namely air and water.Increasing the mass flow rate of incoming air at the airlift pump will result in a greater discharge. Increasing the diameter of the pipe results in a decreasing pressure in the pipe and reducing the diameter of the pipe results in a greater streamline velocity in the inner air chamber and results in a more random or turbulent fluid flow.
