Experimental Hydro-Mechanical Characterization of Full Load Pressure Surge in Francis Turbines

François Avellan, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Christian Landry, Andres Müller, Keita Yamamoto

Full load pressure surge limits the operating range of hydro-electric generating units by causing significant power output swings and by compromising the safety of the plant. It appears during the off-design operation of hydraulic machines, which is increa ...

Fluid-structure interaction mechanisms leading to dangerous power swings in Francis turbines at full load

François Avellan, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Christian Landry

Hydropower plants play an important regulatory role in the large scale integration of volatile renewable energy sources into the existing power grid. This duty however requires a continuous extension of their operating range, provoking the emergence of com ...

RANS computations for identification of 1-D cavitation model parameters: application to full load cavitation vortex rope

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Andres Müller, Sébastien Alligné

Due to the massive penetration of alternative renewable energies, hydropower is a key energy conversion technology for stabilizing the electrical power network by using hydraulic machines at off design operating conditions. At full load, the axisymmetric c ...

URANS Models for the Simulation of Full Load Pressure Surge in Francis Turbines Validated by Particle Image Velocimetry

François Avellan, Arthur Tristan Favrel

Due to the penetration of alternative renewable energies, the stabilization of the electrical power network relies on the off-design operation of turbines and pump-turbines in hydro-power plants. The occurrence of cavitation is however a common phenomenon ...

On the sloshing free surface in the draft tube cone of a Francis turbine operating in synchronous condenser mode

François Avellan, Elena Vagnoni, Loïc Andolfatto

Hydropower plants may be required to operate in synchronous condenser mode in order to supply reactive power to the grid for compensating the fluctuations introduced by the intermittent renewable energies such wind and solar. When operating in this mode, t ...

A white rabbit synchronized PMU

Mario Paolone, Asja Derviskadic, Reza Razzaghi

Within the context of time dissemination techniques for power systems applications, the paper illustrates the use of the White Rabbit (WR) technology with respect to its integration in Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) networks. In particular, the paper refe ...

LDV survey of cavitation and resonance effect on the precessing vortex rope dynamics in the draft tube of Francis turbines

François Avellan, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Christian Landry, Keita Yamamoto

The large-scale penetration of the electrical grid by intermittent renewable energy sources requires a continuous operating range extension of hydropower plants. This causes the formation of unfavourable flow patterns in the draft tube of turbines and pump ...
