• Constraints of Parametrically Defined Guide Vanes for a High-Head Francis Turbine 

      Stojkovski, Filip; Lazarevikj, Marija; Markov, Zoran; Iliev, Igor; Dahlhaug, Ole Gunnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      This paper is focused on the guide vane cascade as one of the most crucial stationary sub-systems of the hydraulic turbine, which needs to provide efficient inflow hydraulic conditions to the runner. The guide vanes direct ...
    • Parameter based tool for Francis turbine guide vanes design using coupled MATLAB-ANSYS approach 

      Lazarevikj, Marija; Stojkovski, Filip; Markov, Zoran; Iliev, Igor; Dahlhaug, Ole Gunnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The complex geometry of Francis turbine components can be defined parametrically so that automatic optimization techniques based on parametrization can be used. This is convenient for a hydraulic redesign of individual ...
