摘要
Pelton turbines are used for energy recovery in pressure-retarded osmosis (PRO) systems. The quality of jet sprays is a significant factor affecting the performance of these turbines. This study examined jet quality characteristics according to the nozzle geometry of Pelton turbines. Jet quality tests were conducted to analyze the degree of similarity between the actual jet flow and the ideal jet flow. Power loss, discharge coefficients, and performance characteristics of Pelton turbines were examined with respect to the nozzle shape through performance tests of the nozzles and turbines. Furthermore, jet flows were numerically analyzed. The test results and analyses confirm that for a given input power, the recirculation region increases and the jet quality decreases with increasing nozzle throat angle. On the basis of the results, the optimum range of nozzle throat angle for Pelton turbines in PRO systems is suggested.
