Numerical Investigations into Horseshoe Vortices in Draft Tubes of Bulb Turbines
The series of flows around the piers in draft tubes of bulb turbines were investigated. The flow fields were assumed to be steady incompressible turbulent flows. The primary factor responsible for total pressure loss in draft tubes was investigated based on the data obtained. Well-known horseshoe-sh...
