Clearance flow patterns and pressure distribution of a pump-turbine: Measurement and simulation of a rotating disk flow

The clearance flow patterns and pressure distribution determine the clearance axial hydraulic thrust of a pump turbine, which has a substantial impact on the unit axial imbalance. However, due to the tiny size and complex shape of the clearance flow channel, there is no detailed description of the f...
