In the seawater desalination system, the energy recovery system is a crucial part, as it
consumes a lot of energy and plays a guiding role in the recovery efficiency. Therefore, in …

An Arbitrary Lagrange Euler (ALE) description of fluid flows is used together with the
meshless numerical method Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) to simulate free …

Pelton turbine (or Pelton wheel) is among the most efficient impulse turbines and has
retained its existence in hydropower for well over a century. However unlike in the …

Impulse turbines are widely used in hydropower plants around the world due to their high
efficiency in a larger operating range compared to reaction turbines. State of the art Pelton …

The Pelton turbine is the most widespread and efficient impulse hydropower turbine. The
Pelton casing is a static, but key component: the internal hydrodynamic phenomena affect …

Pelton turbine, with its unique advantages in high mountainous region especially in the
southwest of China, has received more and more attention. This paper focuses on the …

Hydro impulse turbines are often referred to as a mature technology having been invented
around 100 years ago with many of the old design guidelines producing machines of a high …

Medium-and high-head hydropower plants (HPPs) often feature Pelton turbines. For very
high-heads above some 800 meters, this turbine type is practically the one and only …

Pelton turbines have been used for harvesting clean energy from water jet for over 100
years. The wide range of their applicability and the robustness with minimal onsite …
