Hydraulic Elastic Vibration Analysis of Hydraulic Turbine Blade
Advanced Materials Research, 2011This paper analyses quantitatively mechanism that hydraulic turbine runner blade tail produces Carmen vortex column, and the blade hydraulic elastic vibration which is produced by Carmen vortex column, also analyses the harms of blade hydraulic resonance, puts forward corresponding preventative measures.

Hydraulic characteristics of turbine impeller
Collection of Czechoslovak Chemical Communications, 1982The study concentrates on the determination of hydraulic characteristics (volumetric flow rate, power output, hydraulic efficiency and total head) of a standard, six-blade turbine impeller in a flat-bottomed cylindrical vessel provided with radial baffles at a turbulent regime of agitated liquid. The investigated characteristics are determined by means

Hydraulic Turbine Setting Criteria
Journal of Engineering for Power, 1965Higher settings of hydraulic turbines are proposed which will result in lower relative tailwater levels with associated operational improvements. Present selling criteria may lead to unsatisfactory operation at higher tailwater levels. Cavitation damage is not necessarily prevented by low settings, and draft-tube surges may occur under high tailwater ...

A new bladeless hydraulic turbine
Applied Energy, 2013A water turbine constructed on the water turbulence or whirlpool principle is capable of utilizing very small sources even for untapped water, and it is highly suitable for the closed circuit production of electrical energy. The non-monotonic distribution of the radial velocity component is important for the onset of the driving force of the angular ...

Hydraulic-Turbine Runner Vibration
Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1956Abstract This paper describes an investigation of the vibration characteristics of Francis-turbine runners and some experiments to determine the influence of different shapes of runner-bucket discharge edges on the excitation forces. Modifications suggested by the experiments were made to field runners and were successful in eliminating ...

Measurement of Hydraulic-Turbine Vibration
Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1952Abstract This paper describes a test program used to measure and eliminate the vibration which had produced extensive cracking in the blading of a slow-speed, 40,000-hp hydraulic turbine. Strains, accelerations, and pressures were measured at various locations on the turbine runner while the unit was in operation.

Cavitation in Hydraulic Turbines
1962The most common and troublesome maintenance problem encountered with hydraulic turbines is the erosion caused by cavitation. A study of the cavitation phenomenon has demonstrated that the pressure produced by the collapse of cavitation bubbles is sufficient to cause mechanical erosion of all known materials. However, the resistance to cavitation damage
