Francis turbine has wide range of applicability and easier structural design, which makes more advantageous than other hydraulic turbines. As a key component of a Francis turbine facility, the runner performance plays a vital role in the performance of the turbine. It is effective and successful to design a Francis turbine runner blade with good performance by one dimensional hydraulic design method. On the basis of one dimensional hydraulic analysis, there are a lot of parameters of the internal flow passage shapes determined by experience. Therefore, the effect of throat area of blade on the performance of a Francis turbine is investigated in this study. A given Francis turbine model was selected for investigating the throat area of blade on the performance. The result shows that the effect of throat area of runner blade on the outflow angle from runner passage on the performance is significant. A correct exit flow angle reduces the energy loss at draft tube, which has the best efficiency of the turbine model. |
