Hysteresis on Wells Turbine Characteristics in Reciprocating Flow

The Wells turbine for a wave power generator has hysteretic characteristics in a reciprocating flow, which results in the inaccurate prediction of performance in a quasisteady analysis. In order to clarify the hysteretic characteristics, an experimental investigation has been made by use of a newly...
