The book covers the main dimensions of Francis turbines, including runners, guide vanes, and distributors. The authors have selected OpenFOAM, a free, open-source CFD software, for readers to perform simulations. While there is some existing literature on the topic, this book distinguishes itself by going into detail on the three phases of CFD methods. The authors also describe, step-by-step, how to create a new solver for hydraulic machines to account for sediment erosion. The content is presented in an easy-to-understand manner to help readers quickly grasp the material. The book is accessible to specialists in relevant fields, as well as undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and other professionals interested in designing a suitable Francis turbine or simulating multiphase flow fields for rotating machines. 606 $aWater-power 606 $aRenewable energy sources 606 $aHydroenergy 606 $aRenewable Energy 615 0$aWater-power. 615 0$aRenewable energy sources. 615 14$aHydroenergy. 615 24$aRenewable Energy. 676 $a621.312134 700 $aGuo$b Zhiwei$01733544 701 $aChitrakar$b Sailesh$01733545 701 $aQian$b Zhongdong$01733546 701 $aThapa$b Bhola$01733547 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910845097103321 996 $aDesign of Francis Turbine and OpenFOAM Methods$94149369 997 $aUNINA
