Simulation of steady and unsteady flows through a small‐size Kaplan turbine

Abstract The increasing demand for electric energy has pushed to rely on the microhydropower as one of the most cost‐effective technologies to improve the grid stability in rural localities. This article investigates the steady and unsteady flows in a complete small Kaplan turbine by means of the so...
