Multiobjective Optimization of a Counterrotating Type Pump-Turbine Unit Operated at Turbine Mode

A multiobjective optimization for improving the turbine output and efficiency of a counterrotating type pump-turbine unit operated at turbine mode was carried out in this work. The blade geometry of both the runners was optimized using a hybrid multiobjective evolutionary algorithm coupled with a su...
