Combining pressure management and energy recovery benefits in a water distribution system installing PATs
(2017)Gravity can play a beneficial role in certain water distribution networks (WDNs), although sometimes high nodal pressures occur. Excessive pressure may lead to several negative effects regarding the network's operation and ... -
The influence of heat transfer effects on turbine performance characteristics
(2006)A method allowing the evaluation of the effects related to heat transfer to the turbine blades on its performance characteristics is presented. The effects investigated are the change of passage dimensions, resulting from ... -
Pressure Management and Energy Recovery Capabilities Using PATs
(2016)Hydro-turbines are widely used in small water energy production plants in order to turn water kinetic energy to electricity. PATs (Pumps working As Turbines) are micro-turbines (small sized compared to the usual ones) ...
