Abstract Hydraulic impedance, as an efficient frequency-domain analysis alternative, has been widely utilized in hydraulic transient for decades. Since the mathematical expressions of systems with complicated pipe networks are usually rather complex, it is difficult traditional continuous impedance method to obtain analytical solutions system’s frequency responses directly. Therefore, equivalen...

Heat exchangers are widely used in power engineering and industrial applications, many techniques such as coiled tube, surface tension devices, rough surfaces, extended surfaces have been investigated to enhancethermal performance and to minimize the cost and size of the heat exchanger equipment. One of the most important techniques is tube insert. In general,tube inserts can be classified into...

Hydraulic turbines are increasingly used to regulate the electrical grid. They thus have operate more often at off-design conditions where instabilities may develop leading large pressure pulsations decreasing life of machines. In present study, an adjustable guide vane system in draft tube a single regulated hydraulic turbine is developed. The aim mitigate when operates part load operational r...

in this paper, the fluid-structure interaction phenomenon and the research history are described. then due to the complex and specific working conditions of a turbine blade, we have investigated the phenomenon on this subject. the fluid-structure interaction on a turbine blade model has been simulated by using structural and fluid flow section of ansys software. a model of turbine blade with ai...
