Effect of draft tube diameter on nitrogen removal from domestic sewage in a draft tube type reactor

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 1998
The effect of the ratio of draft tube diameter to reactor diameter (Di/Do) on the efficiency of nitrogen removal from domestic sewage is discussed based on liquid-circulating flow rate and continuous treatment data. More than 2.5 minutes of circulation time in the annulus part, which is required to create an anoxic zone, could be maintained under ...

Computational fluid dynamics simulation and geometric design of hydraulic turbine draft tube

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2015
Any hydraulic reaction turbine is installed with a draft tube that impacts widely the entire turbine performance, on which its functions are as follows: drive the flux in appropriate manner after it releases its energy to the runner; recover the suction ...

The Effect of J-Groove on Vortex Suppression and Energy Dissipation in a Draft Tube of Francis Turbine

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The vortex rope in the draft tube is considered as the major contributor to pressure pulsation at partial load (PL) conditions, which causes the hydro unit to operate unstably.

Experimental analysis of the vibration on the draft tube of a Francis hydraulic turbine during operation at different power levels

open access: yesRevista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2013
Severe vibrations are present on the draft tube of a 95 MW hydraulic turbine operating at partial load. Frequent failures on structural elements of the power plant are produced, due to the hydraulic instability inside the draft tube; mainly when the ...
