  1. 1. Developement of a numeric tool for fatigue life evaluation of the regulating mechanism in Kaplan runners

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Emil Treitler; [2022]
    Keywords : Fatigue; Kaplan; Hydropower; Turbine;

    Abstract : Kaplan turbines are a type of hydropower turbine with adjustable runner blades. This allows the turbine to alter its power output while maintaining a relatively high efficiency over a wide range of power levels. But these frequent blade angel adjustments exposes the turbines internal mechanism to wear and the possibility of fatigue failure. READ MORE
