The present paper investigates the rotating vortex rope (RVR) mitigation on an axial turbine model by the radial protrusion of four cylindrical rods into the draft tube. RVR mitigation is of …
Fluid–soil interaction plays a pivotal role in various geotechnical engineering applications, as it significantly influences processes such as erosion, sediment transport, and soil stability …
Vortex breakdown occurs in highly swirling flows in various engineering applications, such as hydraulic turbines working in either high-load or part-load conditions, leading to pressure …
The global demand for electricity generation has been increasing over the recent decades and is expected to grow steadily. Therefore, activating new energy sources to improve the …
In highly swirling flows, such as hydraulic turbines operating under part-load (PL) conditions, vortex breakdown occurs and performance is impaired. Consequently, it is imperative that …
The paper presents steady and unsteady numerical simulations of the flow around a circular bluff-body to investigate a methodology to apply to hydraulic turbines draft tube. The linear …
