Numerical Study on the Internal Flow Field of a Reversible Turbine during Continuous Guide Vane Closing
The unsteady flow field in a reversible pump-turbine is investigated during the continuous load rejection using a 3D computational fluid dynamic analysis.Numerical calculations are carried out using the detached eddy simulation (DES) turbulence model and a new approach involving automatic mesh motion.In this way, the instability of the flow field u
