  • HEAD-LOSS OF A T-JUNCTION Objectives: Determination of the head-losses of a T-junction under various operating conditions

    Abstract At a projected pump-storage power plant different operation conditions are necessary due to regulation processes. Thereby inflow and outflow conditions in the T-junctions, which are located between the pumps and turbines, are changed rapidly. To quantify the hydraulic properties and head losses of the T-junction physical model tests were conducted
