# The inlet angle of runner blades of a Francis turbine is 90°. The blades are so shaped that the tangential component of velocity at blade outlet is zero. The flow velocity remains constant throughout the blade passage and is equal to half of the blade velocity at runner inlet. The blade efficiency of the runner is. ## Answer (Detailed Solution Below). ## Detailed Solution. \({V\_f}\_i = {V\_f}\_o = \frac{{{u\_i}}}{2}\). \({\eta \_H} = \frac{{{V\_{wi}}{u\_i}}}{{gH}} = \frac{{u\_i^2}}{{gH}}\). \(\begin{array}{l} \rho gQH = \rho Q{V\_{wi}}{u\_i} + \frac{{\rho QV\_o^2}}{2}\\ gH = u\_i^2 + \frac{{V\_{fo}^2}}{2} = u\_i^2 + \frac{{u\_i^2}}{8}\\ gH = \frac{9}{8}u\_i^2\\ {\eta \_H} = \frac{{u\_i^2}}{{\frac{9}{8}u\_i^2}} = \frac{8}{9} = 0.8888 \end{array}\). -> The GATE CE Admit Card has been released on 7th January 2025. > The GATE CE 2025 Notification has been released on the GATE official website. -> Candidates preparing for the exam can refer to the GATE CE Preparation Tips to increase their chances of selection. ## More Reaction Turbine Questions.

Design optimization method for Francis turbine

https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1755-1315/22/1/012026/pdf

# Design optimization method for Francis turbine. -Multi-objective shape optimization of runner blade for Kaplan turbine A Semenova, D Chirkov, A Lyutov et al. Blade shape design is carried out in one kind of NURBS curve defined by a series of control points. The system was applied for designing the stationary vanes and the runner of higher specific speed francis turbine. As the first step, single objective optimization was performed on stay vane profile, and second step was multi-objective optimization for runner in wide operating range. As a result, it was confirmed that the design system is useful for developing of hydro turbine. We have also developed a hydro turbine by using design of experiments (DOE) and multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) as the optimization method [1] [2] [3]. In the design system, blade profile was defined by a flexible curve, and the optimization method adapted to Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), which is one of the swarm intelligence techniques.

Optimization and Performance Analysis of Francis Turbine Runner ...

https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/14/16/10331

The proposed method aims to improve the hydraulic performance of the turbine, enhance and suppress the vibration of the turbine, and expand the operation range of the turbine on the basis of the actual situation given that Francis turbine frequently operates in low- and ultralow-load areas under the condition of multi-energy complementarity and continuous adjustment of operating conditions. The super-transfer approximation method was used to select the weight co-efficient of water turbine operating conditions, and a multi-objective optimization function with the efficiency and cavitation performance of the water turbine as optimization objectives was constructed to ensure that the optimized water turbine can achieve the optimal performance in the full working condition range. A multi-objective and multi-condition optimization design method for Francis turbine runner based on the super-transfer approximation method is proposed in this work to improve the hydraulic performance of the turbine in the full working condition range and broaden the working range of the turbine given that the Francis turbine frequently operates in low- and ultralow-load areas under the condition of multi-energy complementarity and continuous adjustment of operating conditions.

# Machine Learning for Hydraulic Francis Runner Design Optimization. A new methodology uses **3D Inverse Design** technology coupled with **Reactive Response Surface (RRS) Machine Learning** to rapidly optimize Francis hydraulic turbine runners. This approach requires only **10 input parameters** to explore a vast design space and, in just a few hours, discovered optimized designs that showed significant performance gains, including **5-9 percentage points higher efficiency** and an **8-28% increase in shaft power** over the baseline model. In this blog we look at how ADT’s Reactive Response Surface + CAE technology (RRS+CAE) is driving better hydraulic turbine design through Machine Learning. ## • The Francis Runner performance challenge - and the solution • Where to start - Generate a meanline Francis runner design • 3D Inverse Design is the enabling technology for Machine Learning • How to establish a baseline for turbine performance • Optimization of a Francis runner via Machine Learning • RRS gives design choices and performance gains • Final validation of the Machine Learning solution • Conclusions.
