This paper presents a computational study of sludge pump design with vortex impeller. It contains two design variants of vortex impeller, which is supported by CFD calculations in ANSYS Fluent. By modeling the problem in Fluent, it has been verified that such impellers could be fitted into the existing spiral casing with channel impeller. It was verified that the original operating parameters were maintained. Results of these design solutions and evaluation of effect of some construction modifications on the characteristics of the pump have been shown.
