Kaplan turbines, as one of the well-known hydraulic turbines, are generally utilized
worldwide for low-head and high-flow conditions. Any failure in each of the turbine …

Kaplan turbines are nowadays used to provide Frequency Containment Reserve (FCR) to
the grid due to their fast capacity to regulate their power maintaining high efficiency …

The work deals with development of a new approach for forecasting a high-cycle fatigue life-
time of bolted connection of hydro turbines runner. Operation of hydro turbines on normal …

In the current energy market, hydraulic turbines are increasingly demanded to work in
Frequency containment reserve (FCR) mode to compensate the constant frequency …

The paper presents a fatigue analysis of low level links of a parallel topology robot guiding
device mechanism. This mechanism has a FP3+ 3· RRS+ MP3 structure. The 3D model of …

This paper deals with the optimization of the axial hydraulic turbines of Kaplan type. The
optimization of the runner blade is presented systematically from two points of view …
