Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
High-velocity plunging water jets, such as those formed by spillways of high-head dams, cause scour on the rock foundations. The scour process is the result of complex physical phenomena concerning the three media involved, namely, water, rock and air. Air ...

The present work is a contribution to the physical analysis and numerical simulation of the pressure surges in hydraulic machinery and connected conduit systems. Localized hydrodynamic instabilities including cavitation are prone to interact with the entir ...
With economical energy market strategies based on instantaneous pricings of electricity as function of the demand or the predictions, operators harness more hydroelectric facilities to off-design operating points to cover the variations of the electricity ...
Centrifugal pumps are required to sustain a stable operation of the system they support under all operating conditions. Minor modifications of the surfaces defining the pump's water passage can influence the tendency to unstable system operation significan ...
At part load operation of Francis turbine, the swirl in the draft tube leads to flow instability known as vortex breakdown. This flow instability can interact with the rest of the hydraulic circuit through axially propagating plane-waves. Moreover, at low ...
High-head storage hydropower plants mainly operate their turbines during periods of high energy demand. The sudden starting and stopping of turbines (hydropeaking) lead to highly unsteady flow in channels and rivers. Besides hydropeaking, other anthropogen ...
The flow in the draft tube cone of Francis turbines operated at partial discharge is a complex hydrodynamic phenomenon where an incoming steady axisymmetric swirling flow evolves into a three-dimensional unsteady flow field with precessing helical vortex ( ...

The Discussers would like to congratulate the Authors for their interesting work concerning the flow characteristics in channel confluences, performed by means of three-dimensional numerical simulations considering rectangular crosssections with smooth bed ...
Fluid-structure investigations in hydraulic machines using coupled simulations are particularly time-consuming. In this study, an alternative method is presented that linearizes the hydrodynamic load of a rigid, oscillating hydrofoil. The hydrofoil, which ...
