Investigation of unsteady flow-induced impeller oscillations of a single-blade pump under off-design conditions

TL;DR: In this paper, the periodically unsteady flow-induced impeller oscillations for a single-blade pump are investigated both numerically and experimentally under off-design conditions, and a partitioned strategy with load transfer method is selected for achieving successful fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulations with strong two-way coupling.
