Optimisation and efficiency improvement of pelton hydro turbine using computational fluid dynamics and experimental testing
The aim of this PhD research was to develop a generic optimisation method for Pelton turbine runners and assess the key design parameters using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). This optimisation was applied on a modern commercial Pelton turbine runner taken as a base design. The design together w...
