EU-funded researchers advanced state-of-the-art computational tools to enhance the design of hydraulic rotating machinery and marine propellers.
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is now widely used for designing hydraulic equipment for hydropower projects. Once the specialised tool of the aerospace industry, CFD is now indispensable tool to increase performance and reduce costs of hydraulic machinery.
