Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis of Draft Tube Flow Characteristics in a Kaplan Turbine
This study presents a numerical investigation of the internal flow characteristics within the draft tube of a Kaplan turbine using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The distribution and evolution of vortical structures, particularly the formation and development of vortex ropes under various opera...
