A CFD-Based Shape Design Optimization Process of Fixed Flow Passages in a Francis Hydro Turbine
In recent times, optimization began to be popular in the turbomachinery field. The development of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis and optimization technology provides the opportunity to maximize the performance of hydro turbines. The optimization techniques are focused mainly on the rota...
