April 8, 2010, 10:35	How simulate air bubbles into water turbine?	#1
farzola New Member Fidel Arzola Join Date: Mar 2010 Location: Venezuela Posts: 5 Rep Power: 16	I would like to evaluate the behavior of air bubbles passing through water passageways in a Francis turbine. When the bubbles enters the spiral case, they are under 130 meter of pressure. When they are passing through a distributor the flow velocity will increase and the corresponding pressure will decrease, so I wonder what kind of changes will experience them. Is it possible to simulate this phenomenom using CFX? __________________ Thanks, Fidel
