Abstract

Impulse turbines with tailwater depression are an efficient choice for energy recovery in drinking water systems. To reduce negative effects of detrained air downstream of the turbine casing, such as corrosion and reduced transport capacity, main processes and possible reduction of air detrainment have been investigated in detailed experimental studies on a micro-hydro Pelton machine with tailwater depression. The experimental setup has been designed to distinguish between dissolved and undissolved air detrainment.
