Entropy Production Analysis for S-Characteristics of a Pump Turbine
Due to the S-shape characteristics and the complicated flow in pump turbine, there may be serious instability when the pump-storage power plant starts. In order to conduct further study on the energy dissipation in hydraulic turbine, three dimensional incompressible steady state simulations were applied using SST k-ω turbulence model in this paper.

Condition monitoring of pump-turbines. New challenges [PDF]
At present, pumped storage is the only system to store huge amounts of energy. The surplus of energy in the electrical grid is used for pumping water from a lower to a higher reservoir (pump operation). At peak hours or in case of emergency this water goes down generating electrical energy (turbine operation).

In a CO2 absorption process, it is investigated whether the adjustment of operating parameters facilitates the integration of different closed heat pump cycles considering various refrigerants. The influence of different integration concepts and electricity prices are investigated by means of resulting total annual costs.
