This paper describes the possibility of an improvement of torque performance and hydrodynamic forces on a vertical axis type water turbine, used for marine current generating system. The water turbine analyzed here is based on a Darrieus turbine with vertical blades. We considered possibilities of controlling the angle of attack of blades in order to improve the starting performance and to reduce energy loss during the rotation of the turbine. We used blade-element/ momentum theory in order to investigate the variations appearing in torque performance when the angle of attack were controlled. We also proved the validity of our predictions of hydrodynamic forces on the blade and the turbine, made through CFD calculation, by comparing them with the results of corresponding model tests in a current channel. In the corresponding model test we investigated not only the hydrodynamic forces on the turbine with three fixed blades, but also the inline force and the cross-flow force on the rotating turbine with three blades. Regarding the cyclic pitching of turbine blades, results suggest that significant increase in average turbine torque is possible.

Abstrak: There are many streams of water or rivers around us which are felt to be underutilized effectively. Therefore, it is necessary to develop Pico hydro technology as an alternative to power generation. Pico hydro usually produces low wattage so that it is not optimal for people to use in their daily lives. Therefore, the design of a power plant is designed that is equipped with an ECU control system as a water source control system that can produce greater electrical energy. The research method used is a pure experimental method to find out the results obtained are 300 watts by calculating the pressure sent to the ECU system. Technically, Pico hydro has several components in it, such as waterwheel water as a turbine, steering blade and generator. Pico hydro can be used as an alternative energy that utilizes the flow of water which can be used as an energy source.

Abstract The Archimedes screw water turbine (AST) is a device that works mechanically to produce electrical energy with an energy source that comes from the flow of water. Archimedes screw hydro turbines operate at low head and flow rates and can generate electricity at micro levels. This type of turbine is very suitable for use in small waters such as irrigation and rivers. The research was conducted by building a prototype of a small-scale Archimedes screw hydro turbine with and without deflector. The purpose of this research is to compare the rotation produced by the two turbines and whether the installation of a deflector can improve turbine performance. The turbine is constructed with a screw length of 1 m, outer diameter is 30 cm, the number of blades 15, and each has a pitch distance is 13 cm. Turbine angle variations are 30°, 35°, and 40°. The results showed that the best rotor rotation was produced by the screw without deflector at an angle of 30°. This shows that the addition of a deflector reduces the resulting screw rotation.

Small-scale hydroelectric power generation has recently attracted considerable attention. The authors previously proposed an undershot cross-flow water turbine with a very low head suitable for application to open channels. The water turbine was of a cross-flow type and could be used in open channels with the undershot method, remarkably simplifying its design by eliminating guide vanes and the casing. The water turbine was fitted with curved blades (such as the runners of a typical cross-flow water turbine) installed in tube channels. However, there was ambiguity as to how the blades’ shape influenced the turbine’s performance and flow field. To resolve this issue, the present study applies straight blades to an undershot cross-flow water turbine and examines the performance and flow field via experiments and numerical analyses. Results reveal that the output power and the turbine efficiency of the Straight Blades runner were greater than those of the Curved Blades runner regardless of the rotational speed. Compared with the Curved Blades runner, the output power and the turbine efficiency of the Straight Blades runner were improved by about 31.7% and about 67.1%, respectively.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on the performance of glass fiber (GF)-reinforced polypropylene (PP) for wind turbine blades. Support for theoretical blade movement of horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs), simulation, and analysis were performed with the Ansys computer package to gain insight into the durability of polypropylene-chopped E-glass for application in turbine blades under aerodynamic, gravitational, and centrifugal loads. Typically, polymer nanocomposites are used for small-scale wind turbine systems, such as for residential applications. Mechanical and physical properties of material composites including tensile and melt flow indices were determined. Surface morphology of polypropylene-chopped E-glass fiber and functionalized MWCNTs nanocomposites showed good distribution of dispersed phase. The effect of fiber loading on the mechanical properties of the PP nanocomposites was investigated in order to obtain the optimum composite composition and processing conditions for manufacturing wind turbine blades. The results show that adding MWCNTs to glass fiber-reinforced PP composites has a substantial influence on deflection reduction and adding them to chopped-polypropylene E-glass has a significant effect on reducing the bias estimated by finite element analysis.

Abstract Twisted Darrieus water turbine is receiving growing attentiveness for small-scale hydropower generation. Accordingly, the need for raised water energy conversion incentivizes researchers to focalise on the blade shape optimization of twisted Darrieus turbine. In view of this, an experimental analysis has been performed to appraise the efficiency of a spiral Darrieus water rotor in the present work. To better the performance parameters of the studied water rotor with twisted blades, three novel blade shapes, namely U-shaped blade, V-shaped blade and W-shaped blade, have been numerically tested using a computational fluid dynamics three-dimensional numerical model. Maximum power coefficient of Darrieus rotor reaches 0.17 at 0.63 tip-speed ratio using twisted blades. Using V-shaped blades, maximum power coefficient has been risen up to 0.185. The current study could be practically applied to provide more effective employment of twisted Darrieus turbines and to improve the generated power from flowing water such as river streams, tidal currents, or other man made water canals.

In the global scenario, wind turbines and their aerodynamics are always subjected to constant research for increasing their efficiency which converts the abundant wind energy into usable electrical energy. In this research, an attempt is made to increase the efficiency through the changes in surface topology of wind turbines through computational fluid dynamics. Dimples on the other hand are very efficient in reducing air drag as is it evident from the reduction of drag and increase in lift in golf balls. The predominant factors influencing the efficiency of the wind turbines are lift and drag which are to be maximized and minimized respectively. In this research, surface of turbine blades are integrated with dimples of various sizes and arrangements and are analyzed using computational fluid dynamics to obtain an optimum combination. The analysis result shows that there is an increase in power with about 15% increase in efficiency. Hence, integration of dimples on the surface of wind turbine blades has helped in increasing the overall efficiency of the wind turbine.

The as-built material behavior of additive manufactured (AM) Titanium (Ti) 6Al-4V is investigated in this study. A solution heat treated, aged, stress relieved, and hot isostatic pressed Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) AM process was used to manufacture the specimens of interest. The motivation behind this work is based on the ever-growing desire of aerospace system designers to use AM to fabricate components with novel geometries. Specifically, there is keen interest in AM components with complex internal cooling configurations such as turbine blades, nozzle vanes, and heat exchangers that can improve small scale propulsion performance. Though it is feasible to three-dimensionally print parts that meet the Fit portion of a part characteristic description and identification, the Form and Function portions have proven to be more difficult to conquer. This study addresses both the Form and Function characteristics of the LPBF AM process via the investigation of geometry variation and surface roughness effects pertaining to mechanical properties and fatigue behavior of Ti 6Al-4V. Results show that geometry variation may be the cause of increased vibration fatigue life uncertainty. Also, both fatigue and tensile properties show profound discrepancies associated with surface finish. As-built surface finish specimens have lower fatigue and ductility performance, but the results are more consistent than polished data.
