Numerical methods and modelling are becoming increasingly important tools to achieve better designs and more efficient turbines, reducing the time required in physical model testing. This book is focused on applying numerical simulations and models for water turbines to predict tool their performance. In this Special Issue, the different contributions of this book are classified into three state-of-the-art Topics: discussing the modelling of pump-turbines, the simulation of horizontal and vertical axis turbines for hydrokinetic applications and the modelling of hydropower plants. All the contributions to this book demonstrate the importance of the modelling and simulation of water turbines for hydropower energy. This new generation of models and simulations will play a major role in the global energy transition and energy crisis, and, of course, in the mitigation of climate change.Technology: general issuesbicsscHistory of engineering & technologybicssctip leakage flowtubular turbineclearance disciplinenumerical calculationbiologicalflaphydrodynamic performancestallCFDComputational Fluid Dynamicsvertical axis water turbineoverset meshsliding meshdesign Archimedes screw hydropower plantquick estimation methodArchimedean screwfish safe/friendlymulti-ASGhydropower planthydro power plantsmall/micro/pico/low head hydro power plantcomputational fluid dynamicsvolume of fluidtransition SST k-ω turbulence modelwakefault diagnosticsmodel-based fault detectionfault tolerancefuzzy controlhydrokineticbackwaterinland hydrokineticaxial flow turbinesmultiphase pumpintegrated designSparse Grid methodnumerical analysisflow field characteristicsreversible water turbinesguide vane profile changedraft tube vortex beltpressure pulsationenergy recovery factorpump-turbineentropy productionvorticityenergy lossnumerical simulationTechnology: general issuesHistory of engineering & technologyLain Santiagoedt1307818Lopez Mejia Omar DarioedtLain SantiagoothLopez Mejia Omar DarioothBOOK9910639991203321CFD Modelling and Simulation of Water Turbines3029028UNINA
