Blockage Probability Modeling of Large Wood at Reservoir Spillways With Piers

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Paloma Furlan

Large wood increases the morphological and hydraulic complexity of rivers, yet it may block and modify the flood discharge capacity of hydraulic structures. To assess the related risk, blockage probability estimation for hydraulic structures such as reserv ...

A High Efficiency Pneumatic Drive System Using Vane-Type Semi-Rotary Actuators

Alfred Rufer

A compressed air driven generator is proposed, where the pneumatic energy is converted into mechanical energy using two vane-type rotational actuators. The use of a second actuator with a higher displacement in order to produce a thermodynamic expansion al ...

Morphogenesis and oxygen dynamics in phototrophic biofilms growing across a gradient of hydraulic conditions

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Amin Niayifar, Anna Depetris, Michael Kühl

Biofilms are surface-attached and matrix-enclosed microbial communities that dominate microbial life in numerous ecosystems. Using flumes and automated optical coherence tomography, we studied the morphogenesis of phototrophic biofilms along a gradient of ...

Suppressing tip-leakage vortex cavitation by overhanging grooves

Mohamed Farhat, Huaiyu Cheng

In the present paper, a new control method for tip-leakage vortex (TLV) cavitation is proposed. This method, which combines the effects of grooves and winglets, is made of overhanging grooves (OHGs) fitted at the tip of a hydrofoil. Experimental and numeri ...

Hydraulic design of classical stilling basins downstream of stepped chutes

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Michael Pfister, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Ivan Stojnic

New design information regarding the hydraulic behaviour of classical stilling basins downstream of stepped chutes is presented and discussed. An extensive experimental campaign revealed that classical stilling basins preceded by stepped chutes cannot be a ...

Evaluation of a Dynamic Transfer Matrix for a Hydraulic Turbine

François Avellan, Andres Müller, Keita Yamamoto

It is well known that hydraulic machines experience various types of flow instabilities causing a negative influence on the system under off-design operations. The transfer matrix method correlating the flow properties in upstream and downstream of hydraul ...

Gondo Throttled Surge Tank Numerical Modeling and Design Review

Mona Seyfeddine

In order to increase the installed capacity, the refurbishment of Gondo high-head power plant required a modification of the existing surge tank by installing a throttle at its entrance. In a previous study, the geometry of this throttle was optimized by p ...

Strain measurement of hydraulic turbine using distributed optical fiber sensor: a preliminary study

Luc Thévenaz, Can Yao, Pingyu Zhu

This paper demonstrates the feasibility and huge potential of applying distributed fiber optic sensing technologies to strain monitoring and failure predictions in hydraulic machinery, validated by a good match between experimental results and theoretical ...

Small Flex : Modèle d’exploitation flexible d’aménagements hydroélectriques de haute chute au fil de l’eau en Valais

Baku Mbenza

The Kraftwerk Rhone Oberwald hydropower was selected as a pilot site to analyze the possibility of running hydropower plants along a river in alpine regions during winter months. The KRO Gletsch-Oberwald hydropower facility has been operating since the beg ...

Bottom pressure characteristics in a stilling basin downstream of a stepped spillway for two different chute slopes

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Ivan Stojnic

In the last decades numerous stepped spillways were built, mostly on the downstream face of roller compacted concrete (RCC) dams. Stilling basins are often used as an energy dissipater. Although the hydraulics of stepped chutes was extensively investigated ...
