Abstract

The turbine efficiency is an important factor for reflecting the turbine’s hydraulic performance, which plays an important role in guiding the design, manufacture and economic operation of turbine. In recent years, with the continuous improvement and innovation of sensing technology and modern electronic technology, some measurement methods have also been continuously developed. The recent research progress from the research on the field efficiency testing methods of turbines is reviewed herein from four commonly used testing methods of field efficiency of prototype hydraulic turbine, namely, flow-meter method, ultrasonic wave method, pressure-time method and thermodynamic method. The characteristics, existing problems and improved methods of different testing methods are discussed and analyzed, and the development trend of field efficiency testing methods of prototype hydraulic turbine is also pointed out.
