Hydroacoustic modelling and numerical simulation of unsteady operation of hydroelectric systems

Hydropower represented in 1999 19% of the world electricity production and the absolute production is expected to grow considerably during the next 30 years. Francis turbines play a major role in the hydroelectric production due to their extended range of ...

Similarity analysis of the subsurface ﬂow response of hillslopes with complex geometry

Alexis Berne

The matter of the efficient and parsimonious parameterization of hillslope subsurface flow remains an important issue in catchment hydrological studies (Brutsaert, 1995). Insights into the influence of the shape and hydraulic characteristics of hillslopes ...

High-performance concretes from calcium aluminate cements

Karen Scrivener

Calcium aluminate cements have a radically different chemistry to Portland cements. Due principally to their higher cost, they do not compete directly with Portland cements. Nevertheless, concretes based on these cements have very high performance in speci ...

A first characterization of the quench detection system for ITER

Luca Bottura

The purpose of this paper is to assess the expected response of conventional and non-conventional quench detection sensors proposed for the ITER coils, and to be tested in the QUELL experiment in SULTAN. The assessment is based on simulation of thermohydra ...

Hydraulic analysis of flow computation results

François Avellan

To get rid of all numerical aspects in flow simulation results and to have more informations about the evolution of the physical values inside the computational domain, we have developed a controlling and analysing method of these results. This method is b ...
