Optimization for Cavitation Inception Performance of Pump-Turbine in Pump Mode Based on Genetic Algorithm

Cavitation is a negative factor of hydraulic machinery because of its undesirable effects on the operation stability and safety. For reversible pump-turbines, the improvement of cavitation inception performance in pump mode is very important due to the strict requirements. The geometry of blade lead...
