Steady Flow Analysis of Francis Turbine

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering, 2009
The flow features are presented on different openings in Francis turbine by unsteady numerical simulation. The unsteady flow results are as follows:when the opening is 12 mm, pressure fluctuation at runner outlet near hub is not obvious and pressure fluctuation amplitudes near midstream and shroud are bigger.

CFD Numerical simulations of Francis turbines

open access: yesRevista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2013
In this paper the description of the internal flow in a Francis turbine is addressed from a numerical point of view. The simulation methodology depends on the objectives. On the one hand, steady simulations are able to provide the hill chart of the turbine and energetic losses in its components.

Modelling and Internal Fuzzy Model Power Control of a Francis Water Turbine

open access: yesEnergies, 2014
This paper presents dynamic modelling of a Francis turbine with a surge tank and the control of a hydro power plant (HPP). Non-linear and linear models include technical parameters and show high similarity to measurement data.

Analysis of Fatigue Failure of Francis Turbine Runner at Derbendikhan Hydropower Station

open access: yesSulaimani Journal for Engineering Sciences, 2017
Fatigue failures in Francis turbine runner are frequently occurred in hydropower plants, causing unexpected plant downtime and considerable financial loss. Decades of operational experience have shown that turbine runners develop fatigue cracks in areas,
