Predicting pump performance and ensuring operational reliability under two-phase conditions is a major goal of three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of liquid/gas radial centrifugal pump flows. Hence, 3D CFD methods are incre...

The current paper aims at assessing the effect of the radial mesh on the description of the axial velocity in steady-state and transient conditions and at presenting the results of a new optimized equal-area mesh. For this purpose, a quasi-2D model is im...

The complex flow conditions in Pelton turbines make it challenging to gain detailed insight into the local flow processes. However, CFD methods offer vast potential for developing and optimising Pelton turbines due to these flow conditions. In a comprehe...

An immersed boundary (IB) method is applied to study the effect of the blade?row gap in a low-speed single-stage compressor. The advantage of using an IB method is that the rotor/stator interface can be eliminated and, thus, the blade?row interaction can...
