Optical Measurement Techniques for Experimental Analysis of Hydraulic Turbines Rotor - Stator Interaction

Year: 2000

Type: article

Abstract: The progress of optical experimental techniques, LDV and PIV, allows to access the unsteady 3D velocity field and the complete Reynolds stress tensor, in real configuration of hydraulic test models. A description of the rotor/stator interaction, at the runner inlet and outlet, is presented for a hydraulic turbine industrial model. The experimental results lead to a better understanding of the rotor-stator interaction and of the influence of the unsteady components in a hydraulic machine operation.
