Flow-Induced Instabilities in Pump-Turbines in China

open access: yesEngineering, 2017
The stability of pump-turbines is of great importance to the operation of pumped storage power (PSP) stations. Both hydraulic instabilities and operational instabilities have been reported in PSP stations in China. In order to provide a reference to the engineers and scientists working on pump-turbines, this paper summarizes the hydraulic instabilities

Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Numerical Predictions of Pressure Fluctuations in a Model Pump Turbine with Small Guide Vane Opening based on Partial Averaged Navier Stokes Approach

open access: yesJournal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2016
Comparing with conventional hydraulic turbine (e.g. Francis turbine), pump turbine shows significant unstable characteristics because its design is a compromise between a pump and a turbine.

The Influence of the Installation Angle of a Blade’s Low-Pressure Edge on the Cavitation Performance of Francis Pump-Turbines

open access: yesFluids
The low-pressure edge of a pump-turbine runner blade is more prone to cavitation than other parts. The installation angle of the blade’s low-pressure edge is one of the key parameters affecting the cavitation performance of the pump-turbine. Based on the

Numerical analysis on pump turbine runaway points

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2012
To research the character of pump turbine runaway points with different guide vane opening, a hydraulic model was established based on a pumped storage power station. The RNG k-? model and SMPLEC algorithms was used to simulate the internal flow fields. The result of the simulation was compared with the test data and good correspondence was got between
