squirrel is on a distinguished road
Hello,

Itīs maybe wrong forum, but I try it anyway.

I wanna do test of Kaplan turbine, effect of anti-cavitation lip more accurently.
I have just wind tunnel for use. Values is not important for me, I need just to catch fact how are vortices changed.

I canīt find any similitude to use, so Iīm asking, is that any possiblity to solve that? And how can I calculate speed for test to have right tip vortices?

My model (due to tie down dimensions of test section) is 1:1. I need to try on wind instead of water and my blade will be in static position (without any rotating).

Thank for response,
Best regards

Squirrel
