Fluid added mass, dam**, and stiffness are highly relevant parameters to consider when
evaluating the dynamic response of a submerged structure in a fluid. The prediction of these …

Reversible pump turbines are widely employed in the pumped hydro energy storage power
plants. The frequent shifts among various operational modes for the reversible pump …

The safety and stability of hydraulic turbine regulating system (HTRS) in hydropower plants
become increasingly important since the rapid development and the broad application of …

Sažetak Compared to a traditional turbine (Kaplan, Francis, Pelton), pumps operated as
turbine are a good alternative for micro hydroelectric power plants thanks to their low cost …

In order to study the nonlinear dynamic behaviors of a hydro-turbine governing system in the
process of sudden load increase transient, we establish a novel nonlinear dynamic model of …

The centrifugal compressor impeller is widely used in petroleum, chemicals, and other fields
and is liable to failure in complicated working environment. Laser cladding as an advanced …

To accurately determine the dynamic response of a structure is of relevant interest in many
engineering applications. Particularly, it is of paramount importance to determine the …

Bulb turbine units are one of the most installed turbines in run-of river projects with relatively
low head. In order to enlarge the useful life of these turbines and avoid fatigue problems and …

The ability of hydropower to adapt the electricity generation to the demand is necessary to
integrate wind and solar energy into the electrical grid. Nowadays, hydropower turbines are …

The pressure fluctuations and runner loads on a pump-turbine runner during runaway
process are very violent and the corresponding flow evolution is complicated. To study these …
