Effects of Large Energetic Vortices on Axial-Flow Hydrokinetic Turbines
Large scale coherent motions around marine and hydrokinetic (MHK) machines can significantly increase the structural loading and affect the overall performance of the machines. Characterization of the approach turbulence and their impact on the instantaneous response of MHK devices is essential for improving their design and performance. This preliminary study investigates the effect of turbule...

متن کاملInteraction of Rim Seal and Annulus Flows in an Axial Flow Turbine
A combined computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and experimental study of interaction of main gas path and rim sealing flow is reported. The experiments were conducted on a two stage axial turbine and included pressure measurements for the cavity formed between the stage 2 rotor disc and the upstream diaphragm for two values of the diaphragm-to-rotor axial clearance. The pressure measurements ind...
متن کاملNumerical analysis of on the effects of Hydrokinetic turbine presence in flow structure of a compound open-channel
In the recent years, due to the hydropower plants environmental problems, hydrokinetic turbine usages has been increased. Using such turbines in rivers modify natural flow-field. In previous studies, impacts of turbine on the flow-field just only in rectangular open-channel is studied. In this work, the effects of hydrokinetic turbine in a straight compound channel has been numerically studied ...
متن کاملInteractions between turbulent open channel flow, power and the wake of an axial-flow marine turbine
I. Introduction Until recently, an understanding of the range of scales of turbulent flow and its dynamic interaction with the performance and wake characteristics of axial-flow marine hydrokinetic turbines was lacking. Advancing this area of knowledge within the field of marine and hydrokinetic energy research, development, and deployment will lead to more efficient turbine operations and redu...
