Potential of the Archimedes screw to generate sustainable green energy for mini, micro, and pico hydro Turbine power stations: An extensive analysis

open access: yesEnergy Strategy Reviews
The Archimedes Screw Turbine (AST) is an innovative type of hydroelectric power plant that can be particularly useful in locations with very low-head sites (less than 10 m head).

Study of the dynamic behavior of Pelton Turbines

open access: yes, 2023
The future of hydropower is tied to the rapid increase of new renewable energies, such as photovoltaic and wind energy. With the growing share of intermittent electricity production, the operation of hydropower installations must be more flexible in order to guarantee the balance between supply and demand.

Flow in Pelton turbines

open access: yes, 2013
The flow in Pelton turbines is subsonic, turbulent, multiphase (water, air, and water vapor from cavitation), has high speeds, sharp gradients, free surface and dynamic boundary conditions. A static grid is unsuitable for modeling this mainly due to the turbine wheel and the liquid having a non-stationary relative motion.In recent times, significant ...

Efficiency Testing of Pelton Turbines with Artificial Defects—Part 1: Buckets

open access: yesEnergies
Pelton turbines are susceptible to hydro-abrasive erosion from sediment-laden flows, resulting in a progressive loss of efficiency. Typical defect classes can be derived from the analysis of such damage observed in hydropower plants.
