Turbulent Flow Simulation of Francis Water Runner with Pseudo-Compressibility

  • Conference paper
Proceedings of the Ninth GAMM-Conference on Numerical Methods in Fluid Mechanics

Part of the book series: Notes on Numerical Fluid Mechanics (NNFM) ((NNFM,volume 35))

Summary

The three-dimensional Navier-Stokes code with the pseudo-compressibility, the implicit formulation of finite difference, and the turbulence model has been developed for the Francis water runner. Two turbulence models are used; one is the so called Baldwin-Lomax zero-equation model and the other is the k two-equation model. The viscous flow in the rotating field can be simulated well with these turbulence models, and their results agree with the experimental data and the Euler code in the design flow condition. Because these codes employing the wall function near the wall for the k model do not require large CPU time, they can be used on the small computer like the so-called engineering work station.
