Microhydro Power Plant (MPP) is a power plant that uses water as a medium to drive turbines and generators. The power generated by PLTMH depends on the flow of river water that flows through PLTMH Prakandowo. In the dry season the water discharge fluctuates so that the efficiency of the MPP has decreased. The research was conducted to analyze the Power Efficiency of MPP Parakandowo. The research method used in this research is non-experimental quantitative using descriptive methods in Parakandowo Hamlet, Sidomulyo Village, Lebakbarang District, Pekalongan Regency. This study provides an overview of the decrease in power efficiency of PLTMH Parakandowo in the dry season. The results of this study are the efficiency value of PLTMH Parakandowo of 65.33% which indicates inefficiency, due to the effect of decreasing water discharge. The long-term solution is to connect MPP with PLN. Homer software can simulate a grid connected MPP with PLN. The simulation results of Homer software hybridize PLTMH with PLN, namely the energy that can be produced is 122,593 kW / year.Keywords—MPP,efficiency,homer,grid connected

Research has been carried out to regulate / control the rotation of the turbine for this type of micro hydro power plant (PLTMH). This research was carried out during the dry season where water discharge greatly affects turbine rotation. This tool utilizes an optocoupler sensor, servo motor and 2x16 LCD. This system works based on the turbine rotation speed that is read on the sensor then controls the slope of the water fall using a DC motor. If thewater speed is low, the servo motor will turn CW up to a maximum slope of 75 degrees to produce maximum rotation and maximum power. This research does not focus on the magnitude of the resulting current source and the amount of water discharge

The city of Jambi is an area batanghari river, the study of the utilization of renewable energy, especially hydro power through the tributaries should be considered for the planning of Micro Hydro Power Plant (PLTMH). Water conditions that can be utilized as electricity generating resources have a certain flow capacity and altitude of their drainage system. A major problem in hydroelectric generation is the availability of river water discharge as a propulsion energy. Therefore, certain techniques are needed to predict the potential flow of river water at all times or the river's main discharge that can be used for hydro-electric power generation, no long-term rainfall and critical watershed conditions can cause water flow the stream becomes small and even becomes dry. Manual river flow measurements over time can only represent the volume of river flow at the time of measurement. Changes that occur due to the occurrence of rain at a later time, or decrease in river discharge due to decreased soil water savings, can not be monitored properly it is necessary to plan a continuous discharge for the capacity of generator turbine rotation by calculating the electrical capacity of the generator which can be generated optimally

A micro hydro power plant, or commonly known as a turbine is a power plant that utilizes the potential energy of water to be converted into mechanical energy which is then converted into electrical energy using a generator. The Pelton turbine is an extension of the impulse turbine with a split some blades dividing the jet into two equal beaks which are reversed sideways at the turbine wheel. This study aims to determine the effect of the number of nozzles to output power, efficiency, and electric power produced. In this study, a Pelton type water turbine was applied to a water source flowing from the mountains with a head of 26 m and 0.003167 m3/s water discharge. This study used 3 variations of the number of nozzles (single, double, and triple nozzle) with 9 mm outer diameter of nozzle and 35 mm nozzle length. The results of the research conducted, the turbine power is 419.53 watts, the turbine efficiency is 52%, and the generator power is 360 Watts for triple nozzle variation.

This study aims to determine the technical application of picohydro power plant (making design and application test) in Pandansari Village, Wanayasa District, Banjarnegara Regency. The result of technical analysis of picohydro power plant is capable of producing 7.200 watt or 7,2 kilowatts of electric power. Based on the observation and calculation of water discharge in July-August 2017, the water debit required to run the generator on picohydro power plant is insufficient (less than 30 liters / sec) due to the months already entering the dry season in Banjarnegara Regency and also because some of the water debit is used by waterwheel to increase water supply to the water container / reservoir belonging to the people of Pandansari Village. During the dry season, the picohydro power plant can be used when operated alternately with a water mill or set the time of use for each water mill used in the morning until late afternoon, while the picohydro power plant is used during the afternoon until night or early morning when people need electricity for their daily needs. The next alternative is to place a second picohydro / turbine generator under the first turbine utilizing waste water from the first turbine with a height difference of at least 2 meters or more. If during the rainy season, there is a very heavy flow of water from above then the overflow can be disbursed / dumped down through the overflow channel so that the performance of the picohydro generator is not disturbed

Water, sediment, and fish samples were collected during the Danube excursion 1988, within a coordinated sampling program of the Radiology Working Group of the “Internationale Arbeitsgemeinschaft Donauforschung ” (K.Hübel, Munich; I. Kurcz, Budapest; D.Rank, Vienna). The H-3 content of the river water and the radioactivity of the bottom sediments were measured at the BVFA Arsenal, Vienna. The determined H-3 content of the Danube water corresponds with the long-term trend in the H-3 content of the hydrosphere; the values lie in the range of 3 Bq/kg downstream from Belgrade, upstream from Belgrade they are about 4 Bq/kg. It was only in the waste water plume of the nuclear power station of Kozloduj that a slightly elevated H-3 value - 6 Bq/kg - was determined. The content of the sediments of artificial radionuclides was found, at the time of the Danube field excursion, to be almost exclusively due to the radioactive material released following the reactor accident at Chernobyl in April 1986 (mainly Cs-137 and Cs-134). As a consequence of the air currents and precipitation conditions prevailing at the time of the accident, the bottom sediments in the lower course of the Danube were less contaminated than those in the upper course. The fine sediments were found to contain over 3000 Bq/kg of Cs-137 in the upper course of the Danube.

This paper presents an auto-tuning approach for dual-input power amplifiers using a combination of global optimisation search algorithms and adaptive linearisation in the optimisation of a multiple-input power amplifier. The objective is to exploit the extra degrees of freedom provided by dual-input topologies to enhance the power efficiency figures along wide signal bandwidths and high peak-to-average power ratio values, while being compliant with the linearity requirements. By using heuristic search global optimisation algorithms, such as the simulated annealing or the adaptive Lipschitz Optimisation, it is possible to find the best parameter configuration for PA biasing, signal calibration, and digital predistortion linearisation to help mitigating the inherent trade-off between linearity and power efficiency. Experimental results using a load-modulated balanced amplifier as device-under-test showed that after properly tuning the selected free-parameters it was possible to maximise the power efficiency when considering long-term evolution signals with different bandwidths. For example, a carrier aggregated a long-term evolution signal with up to 200 MHz instantaneous bandwidth and a peak-to-average power ratio greater than 10 dB, and was amplified with a mean output power around 33 dBm and 22.2% of mean power efficiency while meeting the in-band (error vector magnitude lower than 1%) and out-of-band (adjacent channel leakage ratio lower than −45 dBc) linearity requirements.
