Numerical Analysis of Mechanical Energy Dissipation for an Axial-Flow Pump Based on Entropy Generation Theory
Mechanical energy dissipation is a major problem affecting hydraulic machinery especially under partial-load conditions. Owing to limitations of traditional methods in evaluating mechanical energy dissipation, entropy generation theory is introduced to study mechanical energy dissipation with varyin...
