Oxygen diffusion through air–water free surfaces in a pump–turbine operating in condenser mode

François Avellan, Elena Vagnoni, Loïc Andolfatto, Pierre Leroy

The present research aims at understanding the mass transfer of air into water in a reversible pump turbine operating in condenser mode. In particular, the diffusion of oxygen through the water free-surface both in the vaneless gap between the impeller bla ...

Hill chart modelling using the Hermite polynomial chaos expansion for the performance prediction of pumps running as turbines

François Avellan, Loïc Andolfatto, João Nuno Gomes Borga Delgado

Pumps running as turbines are suitable hydraulic machines for micro hydropower applications. The selection of the proper pumps to install in a given site still remains a major challenge, as pump manufacturers do not provide the characteristic curves data i ...

Prediction of hydro-acoustic resonances in hydropower plants by a new approach based on the concept of swirl number

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Christian Landry, Sébastien Alligné, Joao Gomes Pereira Junior, Arthur Tristan Favrel, Loïc Andolfatto

Hydropower plant units operating in off-design conditions are subject to cavitation flow instabilities, potentially inducing hydro-acoustic resonances under certain conditions. They can be predicted by using one-dimensional numerical models of hydropower p ...
