Mesh-based and particle methods were conceived as two different discretization strategies
to solve partial differential equations. In the last two decades computational methods have …

与反击式水轮机相比, 冲击式水轮机有着应用水头高和高效率工况范围宽的优点,
是开发高水头水电能源的核心装备. 然而, 冲击式水轮机内部为开放式, 多相非稳态流场 …

The Pelton turbine is an impulse turbine typically installed for high head hydroelectric power
plants. For a site with a rated head H and discharge Q, a higher specific speed turbine …

The technical capacity to predict the erosion process is instrumental for the optimization of
the runner designs and operation strategies of hydroelectric plants. A multiscale model of …

Abstract The Meshless Finite Volume (MFV) method, which is a member of the particle
weighted methods (PWM) family, is analysed in the context of the so-called partition noise …

The erosion of hydraulic machines by solid particle impacts is a widespread problem that
leads to outage for expensive repairs, efficiency reduction, and cavitation enhancement …

The cross-flow turbine is an attractive technology for small-scale hydropower generation
thanks to its low capital cost and relatively high efficiency even under partial discharge …

Erosive wear of hydraulic machines is a common issue, which results in efficiency
degradation, the enhancement of cavitation, and the need for expensive maintenance …

The erosion of a surface by a sediment-laden flow is an inherently multiscale phenomenon
which includes physical interactions covering many orders of magnitude in both length and …
