Uncertainty in the numerical prediction of the tangential velocity in axial turbines at part load operations: A parametric study

Numerical simulations of axial hydraulic turbines away from the best efficiency point are challenging. Previous studies especially show difficulties predicting the tangential velocity at Part Load (PL) operating conditions, where the swirl is high, in comparison to experiments. This is a reoccurring...
