HYdropower plants PERformance and flexiBle Operation towards Lean integration of new renewable Energies (HYPERBOLE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
In the recent years due to tremendous development and integration of renewable energy resources in Europe, hydraulic turbines and pump-turbines are key technical components to contribute to renewable energy production and to compensate for the stochastic nature of the variable energy sources, preserving thus the electrical grid stability.As a result, the overarching objective of the project is the ...

Exact Geometry Simulation for Optimized Design of Vehicles and Vessels (EXCITING)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
"This project focuses on computational tools for the optimized design of functional free-form surfaces. Specific applications are ship hulls and propellers in naval engineering and car components, frames, and turbochargers in the automotive and railway transportation industries. The functionality of these products depends on the shape of the surfaces, and even small variations may have significant ...

Development and laboratory testing of improved action and Matrix hydro turbines designed by advanced analysis and optimization tools (HYDROACTION)
Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2011,
"The overall concept of the proposed project is to improve the hydraulic efficiency of small action type turbines, through the development and application of a numerical optimization methodology, that will be validated by the construction and laboratory testing of the prototype models of Pelton, Turgo and Matrix turbines representing both action and reaction types. The methodology to be developed ...
