Investigating the Performance of a Super High-head Francis Turbine under Variable Discharge Conditions Using Numerical and Experimental Approach
A super high-head Francis turbine with a gross head of nearly 700 m was designed with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation and laboratory tests. Reduced-scale (1:3.7) physical and numerical models of the real-scale prototype were created to investigate the hydraulic performance. According t...
