Cavitation is an essential factor in the deterioration of the hydraulic performance of centrifugal pumps. The study of cavitation fault diagnosis can help avoid or reduce the damage it causes. The vibration and noise analysis method can predict the incipient cavitation more accurately. In order to improve the accuracy of cavitation fault diagnosis, this paper studies the distribution of vibration and noise measuring points for centrifugal pump cavitation diagnosis. The research object is a centrifugal pump with an inducer and splitter blades. Vibration acceleration sensors and hydrophones were used to collect structural vibration and liquid-borne noise signals at different positions of the pump unit. Root-mean-square (RMS) and fast Fourier transform (FFT) methods were used to construct spectrums of vibration and noise signals with different NPSH and compare the sensitivity of different measuring points to the inception and development of cavitation.
