    Protec Small Hydro Turbine Selection

    Uploaded by

    Jom Bonhayag
    This document provides the results of a turbine selection program for a proposed 3 unit hydropower plant on the Virginia Falls river with a flow of 8 cubic meters per second. It evaluates the suitability and specifications of 3 turbine types: a horizontal axis Pelton impulse turbine with 2 jets, a horizontal axis Pelton impulse turbine with 1 jet, and a horizontal axis Francis turbine. For each turbine type, it calculates key parameters like efficiency, power output, cost, and dimensions based on the project site characteristics. Performance curves are also provided comparing the efficiency-power characteristics of the different turbine options.
