Bulb Turbine

This study discusses the effect of the number of blades on a horizontal flow propeller turbine performance on a small scale experimentally. The development of small-scale water turbines has made many advances, including water turbines with the horizontal flow. Water turbines in horizontal flow can be applied to irrigation systems, piping systems, the wastewater treatment channel, and other closed channels. Pengukuran dynamic head pada aliran horisontal berdasarkan nilai pressure drop atau perbedaan tekanan sebelum dan sesudah turbin. Dynamic head measurement on the horizontal flow is based on pressure drop values or pressure before and after the turbine. Static bulbs placed before the turbine aim to increase the speed of water flow and potentially improve turbine performance. This study aims to determine the effect of the number of blades on the performance and efficiency of propeller turbines. The blade angle used is 200 with a bulb ratio of 0.6 to the pipe diameter. The variations in the number of blades used were 4, 5, 6, and 7, with each tested at 7 L / s, 9 L / s, 11 L / s, and 13 L / s. The results of this study indicate the number of blades 5 with a discharge of 13 L / s shows the best turbine performance compared to the number of other blades, besides that the number of blades 5 with a flow rate of 13 L / s shows the best efficiency value of around 40%.

This paper discusses numerical simulations of horizontal flow propeller turbines. Static bulbs located before the turbine can be used to increase water velocity and potentially increase the turbine's performance. The blade angle affects the gap between the blades, and this will also affect the performance of the turbine. Numerical simulations were conducted by using software Solid Works Flow Simulation 2016 and by using five blades in a static state. This study aimed to determine the effect of the bulb ratio and blade angle on the propeller turbine characteristics on horizontal flow. Bulb Ratio variations used in this study were 0, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8, while the angle variations used were 20, 25, and 30 degrees. Each variation was tested at 0.02 m3/second. The results of this study indicated that the bulb ratio 0.6 with the 25-degree blade angle produces the highest torque

Paper discusses the problem of pressure drop in the process of working medium flow through combustion chamber of gas turbine. The pressure loss is an internal disadvantage of combustion chamber depends on many parameters, especially the chamber design and working gas flowrate. There is a problem to calculate the parameters of working medium in characteristic points of gas turbine thermodynamic cycle because the total pressure before and after combustion chamber is not known. There is a lack of information from manufacturer about it and in publications as well (mainly no experimental data, only theoretical considerations). It will be important information because the pressure drop has an meaningful influence on gas turbine performance. The paper presents an estimation of decreasing the performance of gas turbine from discussed reason. Author of that manuscript recognized the necessity of showing the importance of that parameter and turning the attention to not fully recognized problem.

The use of archimedes screw has shifted its use from pumps to a source of hydropower at low heads as water turbines. Archimedes srew turbine performance is influenced by several parameters including turbine submersion level, turbine tilt angle, pitch ratio, and number of blades. The contour of the lowland Jambi city that is passed by the Batanghari watershed makes the drainage potential can be utilized to become a small-scale hydroelectric power plant using screw turbines, because the contour of Jambi City is low, resulting in small water pressure although the discharge is sometimes large due to the overflow of the Batanghari river, then the choice of turbine with a low head is the solution, in this study, a study was made to calculate the potential drainage flow in the city of Jambi, whether it can be used or not.

The prevention of Diabetic Mellitus (DM) and its complications is the main aim of this study, in addition to the training of lotion foot care application and the development of small scale industry. The research team delivered knowledge in the form of training on Diabetic Mellitus, healthy food, treatment and prevention of complications, and small-scale production of cosmetic products. The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between training on diabetic and lotion foot care application as preventive measures against diabetic complications on the patient's blood glucose levels in the community of residents in Banyuurip Jaya, Surabaya. It was expected from this training that the knowledge of the residents increases and people living with diabetic undergo lifestyle changes and therefore blood sugar levels can be controlled. The parameters measured in this research were blood glucose levels, the anti diabetic drug types consumed, and compliance on diabetics. This study used the data taken from 60 patients with DM over a period of one month. Questionnaires and log books was used to retrieve data and changes in blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. The results showed the demographic data of patients with type 2 diabetic of 85% female and 15% male, with the range of patients aged of 61-70 years of 46.67% and had history of diabetic (90%). The history of drugs consumed by respondents was anti diabetic drugs such as metformin (40%), glimepiride (33.37%) and insulin (6.67%). In addition, the increased knowledge of DM patients after being given the training compared to before training was shown in several questions in the questionnaire. A statistical analysis using t-test analyzed a correlation between training provided in order to enhance understanding of the patient, as well as correlation with blood glucose levels. A paired T-test showed that there was a relationship between the knowledge of trainees before and after training (p less than 0.05). An interesting result was that there was no relationship between blood glucose levels before and after training provided (p> 0.05).

AbstractVolatile organic compounds (VOCs) are secondary pollutant precursors having adverse impacts on the environment and human health. Although VOC emissions, their sources, and impacts have been investigated, the focus has been on large-scale industrial sources or indoor environments; studies on relatively small-scale enterprises (e.g., auto-repair workshops) are lacking. Here, we performed field VOC measurements for an auto-repair painting facility in Korea and analyzed the characteristics of VOCs emitted from the main painting workshop (top coat). The total VOC concentration was 5069–8058 ppb, and 24–35 species were detected. The VOCs were mainly identified as butyl acetate, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene compounds. VOC characteristics differed depending on the paint type. Butyl acetate had the highest concentration in both water- and oil-based paints; however, its concentration and proportion were higher in the former (3256 ppb, 65.5%) than in the latter (2449 ppb, 31.1%). Comparing VOC concentration before and after passing through adsorption systems, concentrations of most VOCs were lower at the outlets than the inlets of the adsorption systems, but were found to be high at the outlets in some workshops. These results provide a theoretical basis for developing effective VOC control systems and managing VOC emissions from auto-repair painting workshops.

There are several methods currently being used to install offshore oil and gas pipelines. The reel-lay process is fast and one of the most effective offshore pipeline installation methods for seamless, ERW, and UOE line pipes with outside diameters of 18 inches or less. In the case of the reel-laying method, line pipes are subjected to plastic deformation multiplication during reel-laying. It is thus important to understand the change of the mechanical properties of line pipes before and after reel-laying. Therefore, full-scale reeling (FSR) simulations and small-scale reeling (SSR) simulations are applied as evaluation tests for reel-laying. In this study, FSR simulations were performed to investigate the effect of cyclic deformation on the mechanical properties of weldable 13Cr seamless line pipes. Furthermore, SSR simulations were performed to compare the results obtained by FSR simulations.

The objective of this study was to investigate, through experiments, the combined effects of a sharp 180 deg turn and rib patterns on the pressure drop performance and distributions of the local heat transfer coefficient in an entire two-pass rib-roughened channel with a 180 deg turn. The rib pitch-to-equivalent diameter ratio P/de was 1.0, the rib-height-to-equivalent diameter ratio e/de was 0.09, and the rib angle relative to the main flow direction was varied from 30 ∼ 90 deg with an interval of 15 deg. Experiments were conducted for Reynolds numbers in the range 4000 ∼ 30,000. It was disclosed that, due to the interactions between the bend-induced secondary flow and the rib-induced secondary flow, the combination of rib patterns in the channel before and after the turn causes considerable differences in the pressure drop and heat transfer performance of the entire channel.

The bowed-twisted-swept modeling technology of three-dimensional blade has been widely used in the gas impeller machinery and achieved good results. This paper introduces the two-dimensional flow theory and the bowed-twisted-swept modeling ideology into hydraulic turbine design. Simultaneously combined with the popular NSGA-II multi-objective optimization algorithm, a complete set of hydraulic turbine cascade design method was proposed. Taking the last-stage low aspect ratio hydraulic cascade of Ф175 type turbine as an example, the parametric model of this cascade was reconstructed by a high-precision automatic bridge coordinate measuring machine. The multi-objective optimization design of three-dimensional modeling of cascade was completed with the single-stage turbine output torque, efficiency and pressure drop as the objective targets. Finally the influence of the bowed-twisted-swept modeling technology on the hydraulic turbine performance was explored in detail by a professional rotating machinery CFD software. Numerical analysis shows that the twisted blade design achieves a 1.5 times increase in torque and 2 to 4 times increase in pressure diff at same working condition. Moreover, when bowing optimization design and sweeping optimization design are applied on the twisted blade individually, the output torque and the stage efficiency of the hydraulic turbine are respectively improved, and when both two methods are simultaneously applied on the twisted blade, it is beneficial to reduce the pressure drop loss. However, it is noticeable that when the bowed-swept modeling technology used in a straight blade using almost have no effect on the turbine performance.
