Experimental Investigation of Pressure Pulsations in High-head Francis Turbine During Load Acceptance

In the past few decades, renewable energy sources like wind and solar have seen an unprecedented growth in the share of energy production. However, being intermittent in nature, the power production from solar and wind shows large variability even within short period of time. This makes the grid unstable and result in...

Comparative Analysis of Airfoil-Flap Configurations to Determine Aerodynamic Efficiency in Heavy-Lift Cargo Aircraft

Heavy-lift cargo aircraft operate under strict aerodynamic constraints due to high wing loading, large gross weight, and the need to balance low-speed lift with cruise efficiency. This study presents a comparative aerodynamic analysis of NASA Phase-2 supercritical airfoil–flap configurations for heavy-lift cargo aircra...

Evaluation of Climate Change Effects on Run-of-River Hydropower Generation: A Case Study of Mahipar Hydropower Plant

Climate change is a significant environmental issue, characterized by increasing global temperature, variations in rainfall patterns, changes in precipitation timing and intensity, and a decline in snowfall. Run-of-river hydropower Plants are particularly sensitive to such changes, as electricity generation depends dir...

Trade-Off Between Hydraulic Performance and Structural Strength in Blade Thickness Design of High-Head Francis Turbines

Francis turbine runners operated at high head conditions experience severe hydraulic loading and centrifugal stresses, making blade thickness a critical design parameter governing both hydraulic efficiency and structural integrity. Traditionally, blade thickness selection relies on empirical relations, leading to highe...
