An axial-flow pump as a turbine (PAT), as compared to the conventional Francis turbine, has the advantages of not being restricted by the terrain and having lower cost to reverse the pump as a turbine for power generation. When an axial-flow pump is reve...

Gravity flow water distribution systems (WDSs) are used to permit water flow from an input point of highest elevation (source) to the terminal points of a system (consumers). In such WDSs, typically, there is no need for external power to maintain the fl...
