Pressure Analysis in the Draft Tube of a Pump-Turbine under Steady and Transient Conditions
Energies, 2021 Pumped-storage power stations play a regulatory role in the power grid through frequent transition processes. The pressure pulsation in the draft tube of the pump-turbine under transient processes is important for safe operation, which is more intense ...
