Документ Research of fluid flow in two-dimensional and three-dimensional formulation in the flow part of a high-pressure francis turbine(Національний технічний університет "Харківський політехнічний інститут", 2019) Mironov, Konstantin Anatolievich; Oleksenko, Yuliia YuriivnaThe paper presents some results of a computational study of the spatial flow of a viscous fluid in a high-pressure Francis turbine Fr500 (in the optimal mode). To improve the energy performance at the preliminary design stage of the turbine, numerical flow simulations should be carried out. The difficulty of solving the problem posed is due both to the complex spatial geometry of the blade system of the runner and the varying degree of influence of the working bodies on the formation of energy characteristics. This CFD approach reduces costs and time in comparison with the experimental approach and makes it possible to improve and analyze turbine performance and its design before the model is manufactured. The computational complex of programs provides an opportunity to see the picture of pressure distribution, the field of velocity vectors and the movement of fluid particles for substantiation and analysis of results. Numerical modeling of the spatial flow in the flow part of the turbine was carried out to determine changes in the energy characteristics, therefore, the k - ε turbulence model was chosen, this model is the most successful model of first-level turbulence of the circuit. The results of the computational study confirm that the hydraulic efficiency of a hydraulic turbine largely depends on the losses in the guide vane and the runner, which means it is these elements that should be given the most attention, their design and coordination of the flow in them. Analysis of the energy loss in the flow part of the Francis turbine was carried out using programs for calculating fluid flow in two-dimensional and three-dimensional formulation. The obtained calculated data correspond to the previously known experimental recommendations for high-pressure Francis turbine. The issues of increasing the energy performance of a projected high-pressure Francis turbine were considered.
