Numerical Investigation of Flow in a Runner of Low-Head Bulb Turbine and Correlation With Particle Image Velocimetry and Laser Doppler Velocimetry Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It is a well-known fact and a much studied problematic that the performance of low-head hydraulic turbines is highly dependent on the runner–draft tube coupling. Around the optimal operating conditions, the efficiency of ...

Proper Orthogonal Decomposition of Self-Induced Instabilities in Decelerated Swirling Flows and Their Mitigation Through Axial Water Injection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The swirling flow exiting the runner of a hydraulic turbine is further decelerated in the discharge cone of the draft tube to convert the excess of dynamic pressure into static pressure. When the turbine is operated far ...
Numerical and Experimental Investigation of the Cavitating Flow Within Venturi Tube
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hydrodynamic cavitation represents complex physical phenomenon undesirably affecting operation as well as lifespan of many hydraulic machines from small valves to the large hydro power plants. On the other hand, the same ...
