Simulation and Analysis of Cavitating Flow in the Draft Tube of the Francis Turbine with Splitter Blades at Off-Design Condition

Hydraulic plants are required to operate with wider operating range to cover the variants of power outputs into the electrical grid. Although there have been many studies of off-design conditions, studies of cavitating draft tube vortices at the Francis turbine with splitter blades are limited, and...
