Abstract:
Standard centrifugal Dumps may be operated in reverse as water turbines, and for hydroelectric plums of less than 100 kW (micro- hydro) they are often cheaper than specifically designed turbines. However, in order to use a pump in a micro-hydro scheme, the turbine performance-must be found either by testing or by calculation. Several methods have been suggested for predicting the turbine performance based on the data for pump performance at best efficiency, but they produce a wide range of results. In this paper, eight such methods are compared using an analysis of the effects of poor turbine

Abstract:
Wind turbine technology has been used to pump water since ancient history. Direct mechanically coupled wind turbines are the most common method for pumping water to croplands and livestock. Many more recent wind turbines are electrically coupled, with the water pump connected to the wind turbine via a motor-generator connection. With electrical coupling, the distance and location of the water pump is independent of the location of the wind turbine. Therefore, the wind turbine can be located at an optimal wind energy site while the water pump is close to the water well or water tank. This paper

Abstract:
Using the theory of functions of a complex variable, in particular the method of conformal mapping, the irrotational and solenoidal flow in two-dimensional radialflow pump and turbine impellers fitted with equiangular blades is analysed. Exact solutions are given for the fluid velocity along straight radial pump and turbine impeller blades, while for logarithmic spiral pump impeller blades solutions are given which hold asymptotically as (r1/r2)n→0, in whichr1is impeller inner radius,r2is impeller outer radius andnis the number of blades. Both solutions are given in terms of a Fourier series,

The relative flow field in an automotive torque converter turbine was measured at three locations inside the passage (turbine 1/4 chord, mid-chord, and 4/4 chord) using a highfrequency response rotating five-hole-probe. “Jet-Wake” flow structure was found in the turbine passage. Possible flow separation region was observed at the core/suction side at the turbine1/4chord and near the suction side at the turbine mid-chord. The mass averaged stagnation pressure drop is almost evenly distributed along the turbine flow path at the design condition(SR=0.6). The pressure drop due to centrifugal and C

Abstract:
The conventional solution for HAPPs is the use of reversible hydraulic machines operating both in the pump mode as well as in the turbine mode. At the same time, for example, a blade system of a hydraulic machine designed for the pumping mode has a high efficiency. However, in the turbine mode, the energy characteristics of such machine are far from optimal. Considering different patterns of micro- and mini-HAPPs (up to 100 kW) of modular design, it is most appropriate to use a pump and a turbine separately, since the efficiency of hydraulic machines is very important in the case of such low p

Abstract:
Wear-ring clearance leakage would affect performance of pump-turbine significantly. In this paper, the variation of the leakage and efficiency of flat ring seal and labyrinth seal are numerically studied on one pump-turbine when the width of clearance is 0.2 mm and 0.5 mm. The result shows that the effect of leakage flow cannot be neglected. The pump-turbine performance affected by leakage in turbine mode is more than that in pump mode at the same sealing structure and width of clearance. Each component’s proportion of total pressure loss hardly varies with flow rate at pump mode, which is opp

Abstract:
A new strategy to increase the energy efficiency in a water network exists using turbo pumps, which are systems consisting of a pump and a turbine directly coupled on a same shaft. In a turbo pump, the pump is fed by a turbine that exploits a surplus head in a freshwater network in order to produce energy for one system (wastewater) and reduce the excess pressure in another (drinking water). A pump as turbine (PAT) may be preferred over a classic turbine here due to its lower cost. The result of such a coupling is a PAT–pump turbocharger (P&P).

This paper presents a multi-objective optimization strategy for pump-as-turbines (PAT), which relies on one-dimensional theory and analysis of geometrical parameters. In this strategy, a theoretical model, which considers all possible losses incurred (mainly by the components of pipe inlet, impeller and volute), has been put forward for performance prediction of centrifugal pumps operating as turbines (PAT). With the established mathematical relationship between the efficiency of PAT (both at pump and turbine mode) and the impeller controlling variables, the geometric optimization of the PAT i

To study the effects of different guide vane numbers on the unsteady performance of pump as turbine based on the Navier–Stokes equation and standard k-epsilon turbulence model, computation fluid dynamics technology was used to simulate the flow field in pump as turbine. The turbulent kinetic energy, unsteady radial forces, and power losses were also clarified. The results show that for turbines with a guide vane, the distribution of turbulent kinetic energy is more uniform than before, and the radial force vector distribution is more symmetrical within four quadrants.

Abstract:
Hydraulic energy is one of the most important sources of renewable energy today. It is also a complementary source to other renewable energy sources, being the only one that offers an important nonpolluting storage capacity (through pump storage facilities). Another essential quality of hydraulic energy is its ability to regulate the energy system to allow the integration of other sources, in which the process of generating energy depends on factors that cannot be controlled (sun, wind, etc.). However, hydropower plants can damage ecosystems, especially by affecting fish within their turbines.

Abstract:
AbstractIt is desirable to control pitch motion of semi-submersible wind platforms to reduce turbine hub acceleration and increase structural fatigue life. This is achieved by balancing the moment on the platform due to heave float excitation by generating a differential internal head of water between the floats though a pump. This is demonstrated with an experimentally validated linear diffraction-radiation-drag model of an idealised platform. Different scales of platform are considered corresponding to 5, 10 and 20 MW turbines. The pitch angles and hub accelerations generally reduce as scale
