Abstract

In the 13th five-year planning, the pumped storage power stations have speeding up. A large number of pumped storage power stations will been installed. The current development of modern pump storage plants aims towards a higher flexibility and stability in operation, an extended operation range of the hydraulic machine. The stability of pump turbine has been paid more and more attention in the industry.Hydraulic pressure pulsation is very important for the stability of pump turbine. For pump turbine, the pressure pulsation on vane-less area between guide vane and runner blade is very important. It is the fundamental source of unit stability and the direct embodiment of rotational and static interference.This paper analyses the special pressure pulsation in the vane-less area of pump turbine, focusing on the pressure pulsation of one time rotating frequency and two times rotating frequency.The amplitude and frequency of pressure pulsation and the source of pressure pulsation induced by this special frequency are analysed and detected from the perspective of numerical and model test. By optimizing the design of the runner, the pressure pulsation of that particular frequency is eliminated.
