This paper summarizes the findings of CEA project No 307 G 657 entitled "Hydraulic Turbine Cavitation Pitting Detection by Monitoring Runner Vibration." The project was centered on the detection of leading edge cavitation, the main cause of erosion damage ...
At low flow rate operation, Francis turbines feature a cavitating vortex rope in the draft tube resulting from the swirling flow of the runner outlet. The unsteady pressure field related to the precession of the vortex rope induces plane wave propagating i ...
Investigation of the rotor-stator interactions of a reduced-scale model 0.19 ν= pump-turbine in generating mode is presented for the maximum discharge operating condition. This operating point is chosen in order to have the most important rotor-stator inte ...

All hydraulic turbines containing a casing with stay vanes face the potential dynamic problem of stay vane von Kármán vortex shedding. For hydraulic efficiency purposes the stay vanes tend to be relatively slender in the direction normal to the flow thus b ...
The flow in the Pelton turbine bucket is three-dimensional, unsteady, turbulent, features a free surface, and is influenced by the rotation-induced forces. It is therefore difficult to investigate how the energy transfer takes place between the water flow ...

Flows in hydraulic machinery show interactions between guiding and rotating components. The wakes of the fixed components will be part responsible for the pressure fluctuations sensed on the blades. Those fluctuations become more important when the distanc ...
An original validation of the vibratory approach of the cavitation erosion monitoring is presented. Cavitation induced vibrations on a given blade of a large hydro turbine are compared to vibrations induced at the lower guide bearing as well as to the pres ...
On the basis of experimental studies on the influence of the test head and the water nuclei content on the performance of a Francis turbine, we have shown that outlet cavitation is influenced by the active nuclei content of the test loop water. Numerical s ...

The paper presents numerical investigations of decelerated swirling flows specific to hydraulic turbines draft tube cone, within the framework of axisymmetric flow models. First, we investigate the behaviour of a Burgers vortex in a diffuser as the swirl i ...

Cavitation erosion of Francis turbines continues to impose costly repairs and loss of revenues. This erosion is primarily caused by leading edge cavitation. A revue of the literature reveals the non-existence of an absolutely validated detection technique ...
