The Dynamic Characteristics and Control of a Hydraulic Turbine

open access: yesMeasurement + Control, 1969
A dynamic model of a radial flow turbine was derived. The model was verified by tests on an experimental 5 hp Francis type turbine. The tests indicate that the model is adequate for control system design.

From dusk till dawn: ecoacoustic monitoring reveals wind energy impacts on roding Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Renewable energy is vital for reducing carbon emissions and yet its infrastructure poses challenges to biodiversity. While the impacts of wind power on bats and raptors are well‐studied, the effects on elusive species remain largely unknown. The Eurasian woodcock Scolopax rusticola, a nocturnal forest bird, performs characteristic courtship flights at ...

Mergers and Acquisitions as Navigators of Climate Policy Shocks: Evidence from the NOx Budget Trading Program

open access: yesFinancial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine how mergers and acquisitions (M&As) enable firms to adapt to climate policy shocks. Exploiting the adoption of the Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Budget Trading Program (NBP) across US states as an exogenous shock, we find that firms with NOx‐emitting plants subject to the NBP are more likely to engage in M&As, particularly through vertical ...

Influence of tungsten carbide spray treatment on anti-wear performance of Francis turbine runner blades surface

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering
Based on the velocity similarity theory, a test system for sediment wear flow around Francis turbine runner blades was established. The sediment wear test was carried out on the surface of Francis turbine runner blades with severe sediment wear before ...

Understanding the Role of pH Regulation and Neutralizing Agents in Organic Acid Production and Growth of Aspergillus oryzae

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 116-133, January 2026.
We show that pH and neutralization strategy strongly influence the growth, pellet morphology, and organic acid production of Aspergillus oryzae. Acidic and alkaline conditions lead to hairy, dispersed pellets, while near‐neutral environments favour compact pellet formation.

Internal flow characteristics in the draft tube of a Francis turbine under different working conditions

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering
The Francis turbine stability is impacted significantly by the flow characteristics in its draft tube. In the case of a Francis turbine in a hydropower plant, numerical simulations were undertaken at the maximum and rated heads, respectively, under three

Flow Modeling in the Wake of a Francis Turbine with Hydraulic Charge: Case of Songloulou-Cameroon [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics
Cavitation in hydraulic installations is still a major concern when it comes to producing electricity. We are aware of the danger of cavitation and the damage it can cause.
