Flow behaviors in a Kaplan turbine runner with different tip clearances
Tip clearance between the runner blade tip and shroud in a Kaplan turbine is inevitable, and the tip leakage flow (TLF) and tip leakage vortex (TLV) induced by the tip clearance have a considerable effect on the flow behaviors. To reveal the effect of the tip clearance on the flow characteristics, b...
