Task 3.5 CFD analysis of sediment erosion of Francis turbine
Task 3.5 : CFD-analysis of the sediment erosion of the Francis turbine
The major objective of this project activity is to carry out CFD-analysis of the sediment erosion of the Francis turbine.
The numerical model will be used for CFD analysis of prototype Francis turbine. The effect of various operating and sediment parameters will be evaluated. The operating conditions for different sediment loadings will be optimized.
