DOI: 10.1109/access.2021.3049914
Abstract: The high-head pumped storage power station (PSPS) has complex working conditions and severe transient processes. Under load rejection conditions, the turbine speed and the flow channel pressure will threaten the unit. By adjusting the wicket… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/en16093743
Abstract: Transient processes that occur in pumped storage power plants can cause high-pressure conditions, which in turn can result in vibrations in the pump–turbine structure and even damage to structural components. It is therefore crucial to… read more here.
