Investigation of a High Head Francis Turbine at Runaway Operating Conditions
Hydraulic turbines exhibit total load rejection during operation because of high fluctuations in the grid parameters. The generator reaches no-load instantly. Consequently, the turbine runner accelerates to high speed, runaway speed, in seconds. Under common conditions, stable runaway is only reached if after a load rejection, the control and protection mechanisms both fail and the guide vanes ...
متن کاملPrediction of Francis Turbine Prototype Part Load Pressure and Output Power Fluctuations with Hydroelectric Model
The prediction of pressure and output power fluctuations amplitudes on Francis turbine prototype is a challenge for hydro-equipment industry since it is subjected to guarantees to ensure smooth and reliable operation of the hydro units. The European FP7 research project Hyperbole aims to setup a methodology to transpose the pressure fluctuations induced by the cavitation vortex rope from the re...
متن کاملDetection and analysis of part load and full load instabilities in a real Francis turbine prototype
Francis turbines operate in many cases out of its best efficiency point, in order to regulate their output power according to the instantaneous energy demand of the grid. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to analyse and determine the unstable operating points for these kind of units. In the framework of the HYPERBOLE project (FP7-ENERGY-2013-1; Project number 608532) a large Francis unit...
متن کاملDeep Part Load Flow Analysis in a Francis Model turbine by means of two-phase unsteady flow simulations
Hydropower plants are indispensable to stabilize the grid by reacting quickly to changes of the energy demand. However, an extension of the operating range towards high and deep part load conditions without fatigue of the hydraulic components is desirable to increase their flexibility. In this paper a model sized Francis turbine at low discharge operating conditions (Q/QBEP = 0.27) is analyzed ...
متن کاملExperimental and Numerical Studies of a High-Head Francis Turbine: A Review of the Francis-99 Test Case
Hydraulic turbines are widely used to meet real-time electricity demands. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) techniques have played an important role in the design and development of such turbines. The simulation of a complete turbine requires substantial computational resources. A specific approach that is applied to investigate the flow field of one turbine may not work for another turbine. A ...
