Analysis of Sediment Erosion in Pelton Nozzles and Needles Affected by Particle Size

Analysis of Sediment Erosion in Pelton Nozzles and Needles Affected by Particle Size

The sediment erosion of Pelton turbine components is a major challenge in the operation and development of high-head water resources, especially in mountainous areas with high sediment yield. In this paper, a study using numerical simulation was conducted with different sediment particle sizes in th...
