Numerical Investigation of the Pump, Energy-Dissipation and Turbine Regimes of a Radial Centrifugal Pump Converted into a PaT
Centrifugal pumps operating as turbines (PaTs) are cost-effective for energy recovery, but the transitional energy-dissipation regime between pump and turbine modes remains underexplored. This paper presents a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) investigation of a radial centrifugal pump operating across three consecuti...
