  • Efficiency scale-up in refurbished low head Kaplan turbines [Elektronski vir]
    Djelić, Vesko ...
    Four Kaplan turbine models were developed and tested for refurbishment of fourhydro power plants on the Drava river in Slovenia. One refurbished unit on each hydro power plant was also tested by ... Turboinstitute using current-meters for flow measurement. Model efficiencies were scaled-up according to five common scale-up procedures (IEC 995, Hutton, Ackeret, JSME and Fay-Kvyatkovskii) and compared to prototype tested efficiencies. The analysis of results showed that scale-up procedure from IEC 995 Recomendations gives very realistic values of prototype efficiency on low head Kaplan turbines.
