At present, due to energy crisis circumstances, renewable energy becomes the suitable choice
of national energy. Hydropower is a clean source of renewable energy. Especially small
hydropower, the renewable energy which still has large potential and low cost of installation.
The turbine of this project is designing and simulation of a low head axial hydraulic turbine
around 2m due to its low cost, small-sized, the materials used in construction are cheap and
the technologies involved are conventional.
The methodology of this project consists of designing blades from cascade modelling and
set up for a simulation for analysis using Computational fluid dynamics which are compared
to the fundamental calculations. The simulations are done in various rotational speeds and
mass flow from a model of turbine designed from Solidworks to obtain the desired design
power around 5-8 kW and used to determined its efficiencies. The results of the simulations
show at a rotational speed of 355 rpm and 300 kg/s the efficiency is 73.62 % whereas the
fundamental calculations result in 78.6 % efficiency. This shows there are other variables
that can affect the results of the simulations and the performance of the turbine.
