This book was released on 2012-08-28 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the 1970’s, an increasing amount of specialized research has focused on the problems created by instability of internal flow in hydroelectric power plants. However, progress in this field is hampered by the interdisciplinary nature of the subject, between fluid mechanics, structural mechanics and hydraulic transients. Flow-induced Pulsation and Vibration in Hydroelectric Machinery provides a compact guidebook explaining the many different underlying physical mechanisms and their possible effects. Typical phenomena are described to assist in the proper diagnosis of problems and various key strategies for solution are compared and considered with support from practical experience and real-life examples. The link between state-of the-art CFD computation and notorious practical problems is discussed and quantitative data is provided on normal levels of vibration and pulsation so realistic limits can be set for future projects. Current projects are also addressed as the possibilities and limitations of reduced-scale model tests for prediction of prototype performance are explained. Engineers and project planners struggling with the practical problems will find Flow-induced Pulsation and Vibration in Hydroelectric Machinery to be a comprehensive and convenient reference covering key topics and ideas across a range of relevant disciplines.

Download or read book Phase-averaged PIV Measurements in the Draft Tube of a Francis Turbine at Speed No-load written by Gregory Labelle and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis aims to characterize the flow and identify flow phenomena in the draft tube of the Tr-Francis medium head model turbine operated at speed-no load and installed at the Heki laboratory at Laval University. With little research accomplished on the speed no-load regime and machines being operated increasingly in this regime, the thesis will help the industry understand by what mechanisms the machine is damaged by the no load regime. The experiments used stereoscopic particle image velocimetry in one radial-axial plane of the conical diffuser. The measurements were locked on the position of the turbine runner (phase-locked). This measurement method was applied at two heights in the conical diffuser to cover most of its height. The measured phases are equally spaced at an interval of 6° and cover 360°. For the upper measurement section, a finer resolution of 3° was used between phases 300° and 360°. The global flow structure discussed in the literature was found to be present in the studied model. A high velocity throughflow with a large tangential and axial velocity was measured near the diffuser's inner wall. A recirculation zone with much lower velocities was measured at the center of the diffuser. The shear layer mentioned by a few authors was characterised by calculating shear strain components. The flow was found not to be axisymmetric. Traces of inter-blade vortices in the draft tube were found in the phase-averaged measurements as was predicted by the numerical simulations.

Download or read book Turbomachinery Performance Analysis written by R. I. Lewis and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 1996-05-31 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This modern overview to performance analysis places aero- and fluid-dynamic treatments, such as cascade and meridional flow analyses, within the broader context of turbomachine performance analysis. For the first time ducted propellers are treated formally within the general family of turbomachines. It also presents a new approach to the use of dimensional analysis which links the overall requirements, such as flow and head, through velocity triangles to blade element loading and related fluid dynamics within a unifying framework linking all aspects of performance analysis for a wide range of turbomachine types. Computer methods are introduced in the main text and a key chapter on axial turbine performance analysis is complemented by the inclusion of 3 major computer programs on an accompanying disc. These enable the user to generate and modify design data through a graphic interface to assess visually the impact on predicted performance and are designed as a Computer Aided Learning Suite for student project work at the professional designer level.Based on the author's many years of teaching at degree level and extensive research experience, this book is a must for all students and professional engineers involved with turbomachinery.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce projet de maîtrise vise à faire une caractérisation préliminaire de l'écoulement d'une turbine Francis de moyenne chute au régime sans charge dans le cadre du projet Tr-Francis au Laboratoire de machines hydrauliques. Concrètement, le projet a validé la méthodologie numérique utilisée à l'aide de mesures expérimentales préliminaires. De plus, les simulations numérique sont permis de fournir les chargements fluides afin que des simulations structurelles puissent être réalisées. Finalement, les résultats ont permis de cibler les structures dominantes dans l'écoulement qui causent les plus importantes fluctuations de pression et ainsi aider l'équipe expérimentale à positionner les capteurs de pression et à choisir leurs plans de mesures. Pour y arriver, la méthodologie est basée sur des interpolations de mesures effectuées par Hydro-Québec au régime sans charge sur le prototype. Les données sont prises telles quelles pour les simulations effectuées à l'échelle prototype et elles sont mise à l'échelle grâce aux lois de similitude de la norme IEC 60193 pour les simulations à l'échelle modèle. L'effet des conditions d'entrée dans le domaine est étudié sur des domaines partiels avec des maillages de différentes densités ainsi que sur le domaine complet. Les pressions obtenues numériquement dans l'aspirateur sont comparées aux mesures expérimentales préliminaires et les résultats sont concordants. De plus, les poches de cavitations observées numériquement au bord de fuite remontant sur le côté pression des aubes sont, de plus, confirmées par l'expérimentation. Des analyses fréquentielles à partir des signaux de pression sont utilisées dans ce projet afin de caractériser les phénomènes. En plus d'utiliser différentes méthodes de visualisation numériques afin d'isoler et d'analyser les structures principales dans l'écoulement. Imposer un profil de vitesse uniforme comparativement à un profil de vitesse tiré de simulations de la bâche et de la conduite d'amenée ne modifie pas les résultats significativement à l'échelle modèle avec le maillage le plus fin. Lors des simulations avec le domaine complet, plusieurs phénomènes d'importances ont été observés. Notamment des tourbillons inter-aubes, qui ont une modulation à f/n = 1, une importante zone de recirculation dans l'aspirateur qui remonte jusque dans la roue, des tourbillons à l'interface entre la roue et l'aspirateur qui se développent dans la couche cisaillée, un débalancement de l'aspirateur causé par le coude ainsi qu'une zone cavitante au bord de fuite.

Download or read book Energy Harvesting written by Alireza Khaligh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Also called energy scavenging, energy harvesting captures, stores, and uses "clean" energy sources by employing interfaces, storage devices, and other units. Unlike conventional electric power generation systems, renewable energy harvesting does not use fossil fuels and the generation units can be decentralized, thereby significantly reducing transmission and distribution losses. But advanced technical methods must be developed to increase the efficiency of devices in harvesting energy from environmentally friendly, "green" resources and converting them into electrical energy. Recognizing this need, Energy Harvesting: Solar, Wind, and Ocean Energy Conversion Systems describes various energy harvesting technologies, different topologies, and many types of power electronic interfaces for stand-alone utilization or grid connection of energy harvesting applications. Along with providing all the necessary concepts and theoretical background, the authors develop simulation models throughout the text to build a practical understanding of system analysis and modeling. With a focus on solar energy, the first chapter discusses the I−V characteristics of photovoltaic (PV) systems, PV models and equivalent circuits, sun tracking systems, maximum power point tracking systems, shading effects, and power electronic interfaces for grid-connected and stand-alone PV systems. It also presents sizing criteria for applications and modern solar energy applications, including residential, vehicular, naval, and space applications. The next chapter reviews different types of wind turbines and electrical machines as well as various power electronic interfaces. After explaining the energy generation technologies, optimal operation principles, and possible utilization techniques of ocean tidal energy harvesting, the book explores near- and offshore approaches for harvesting the kinetic and potential energy of ocean waves. It also describes the required absorber, turbine, and generator types, along with the power electronic interfaces for grid connection and commercialized ocean wave energy conversion applications. The final chapter deals with closed, open, and hybrid-cycle ocean thermal energy conversion systems.
