Numerical Study of the Winter–Kennedy Flow Measurement Method in Transient Flows

This paper explores the possibility of using the Winter−Kennedy (WK) method for transient flow rate measurement in hydraulic turbines. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) analysis of a numerical model of an axial turbine was carried out for accelerating and decelerating flows. Those were obt...
