State of the art in numerical simulation of high head Francis turbines

The Francis-99 test case consists in a high head Francis turbine model, which geometry together with meshes and detailed experimental measurements is freely available at www.francis-99.org. Three workshops were initially planned to exchange experience on numerical investigations of the test case con...
