CAVITATION EROSION IN FRANCIS TURBINES
The phenomenon of secondary flow is a global problem that causes cavitation erosion in hydraulic equipment. Cavitation is a phenomenon of localised corrosion of the metal surface leading to instability and highly uneven flow behaviour with a consequent excessive noise, vibration, and decreased efficiency in Francis, Kaplan, and other turbines.

Flexible operation of Francis turbines
With the planned cuts in emissions, more of the electric energy will have to come from renewable sources. Two of the largest potential sources are wind- and solar, which have the downside of also being intermittent and non-dispatchable. Since the electricity production must match the consumption, other energy producers in a grid must increase their ...
