Power performance of a model floating wind turbine subjected to cyclic pitch motion: A wind tunnel study

Fernando Porté Agel, Guiyue Duan, Daniele Gattari

Wind tunnel experiments were performed with a miniature floating wind turbine model to study the effects of cyclic pitch motion on its power performance. The cyclic pitch motion was prescribed by two key parameters: pitch frequency and amplitude. The power ...

Numerical investigation on the volute cutwater for pumps running in turbine mode

Elena Vagnoni, Alessandro Morabito

The hydropower sector has recently raised the interest in pump as turbine (PaT) that can be a valid trade-off between capital cost and performance in micro-scale installations. Nevertheless, the modest efficiency of PaTs often restricts their exploitation. ...

Variable speed operation of centrifugal pumps running as turbines. Experimental investigation

François Avellan, João Nuno Gomes Borga Delgado

Pumps running as turbines are pointed out as a cost-effective solution for energy recovery in pressurised water supply systems. However, these hydraulic machines feature low efﬁciency under variable discharge operation due to the lack of an inlet ﬂow contr ...

Energy production with a tubular propeller turbine

Anton Schleiss, Cécile Münch-Alligné, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Vlad Hasmatuchi, Irene Almeida Samora

Micro-hydropower is a way of improving the energetic efficiency of existent water systems. In the particular case of drinking water systems, several studies have showed that pressure reducing valves can be by-passed with turbines in order to recover the di ...

Simulated Annealing in Optimization of Energy Production in a Water Supply Network

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Irene Almeida Samora

In water supply systems, the potential exists for micro-hydropower that uses the pressure excess in the networks to produce electricity. However, because urban drinking water networks are complex systems in which flows and pressure vary constantly, identif ...

Heavy hydrocarbon mixtures as fuels for SIEMENS DLE gas turbines

Associated gases at oil wells are often rich in heavy hydrocarbons (HHC, here denoting hydrocarbons heavier than methane). HHC may cause handling and combustion difficulties as their properties are different from standard natural gas, therefore HHC rich as ...

Power Electronic Traction Transformer - Medium Voltage Prototype

Drazen Dujic, Akos Mester, Toufann Chaudhuri

Recently, the world’s first ever power electronic traction transformer (PETT) for a 15-kV 16.7-Hz railway grid has been newly developed, commissioned, and installed on the test locomotive, where the PETT is presently in use. The design and development of t ...
