  1. 1. Simulation methods for hydropower flows : modeling and validation experiments

    Author : T. Fredrik Engström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : My research project aims for more accurate modeling of the flow in hydropower plants. By accurate modeling, it is possible to try different modifications on existing plants in an affordable manner. Also, entirely new designs can be tested before realization. Hydropower delivers almost 50% of Sweden's electricity demand with a production of 74 TWh. READ MORE

  2. 2. Simulations and experiments of turbulent diffuser flow with hydropower applications

    Author : T. Fredrik Engström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Most hydropower plants in Sweden were built more than 50 years ago. The design tools were model tests and one-dimensional analytical methods. Since then the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics has evolved into an important engineering tool. READ MORE
