A major challenge in the operation and development of the high-head water resources, especially in the mountains with high sediment yield, is the erosion of Pelton turbine …
This study concerns with erosion of Pelton turbine injector ie (nozzle spear tribo pair) by sediment particles for a typical power plant located in Himalayan belt of Jammu and Kashmir …
Numerical simulations were performed to investigate how the design and the operation conditions of a Pelton turbine injector affect its vulnerability to hydro-abrasive erosion …
Pelton turbines have been used for harvesting clean energy from water jet for over 100 years. The wide range of their applicability and the robustness with minimal onsite …
This paper aims to develop a generic optimisation method for Pelton turbine runners using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Two different initial runners are optimised to achieve …
A numerical case study on identifying the optimum number of buckets for a Pelton turbine is presented. Three parameters: number of buckets, bucket radial position and bucket angular …
