... are introduced randomly or in which the relative position between particles is constantly changing, the MR and MR-S algorithms present an advantage in terms of CD times. Originality/value This paper presents a detailed comparison between CD algorithms. The comparisons are performed for problem cases...

... in numerical simulations, to simulate the flow in the entire flow passage of a Francis turbine with the results compared against experimental data for the performance and blade pressure distribution in the turbine to evaluate the applicability of the turbulence models. Findings – The results show...

.... The two impellers included a reference one with constant circulation at outlet and an optimized one with variable circulation designed with the author's method and code. In computations, the throttling and unthrottling approaches were used, respectively. Comparison of hydraulic performance, averaged flow...
