Abstract
This paper detailed the particle image velocimetry (PIV) experimental work in the study of vortex flow in the penstock section. The scaled-down physical model for the penstock pipe and turbines was constructed for the PIV analysis. From the study, it was found that there is no visible vortex being observed in the penstock pipe at the present operating configuration. Upon being compared with the numerical simulated penstock flow, a slight discrepancy of 12% is recorded, indicating the findings are acceptable. In conclusion, the PIV approach on the scaled-down model is suitable for the flow visualization work in dam reliability analysis.
