Abstract

This is to develop a micro water turbine which makes some power from just a fluid velocity in the water pipe. While power is produced from impulsive force which generated by a high head in the case of existing water turbine, this is to produce a power from rotating force of helical turbine which rotated by fluid velocity in the water pipe. Some results of analysis fluid pattern at turbine blade for design shows that bubble is generated from turbulence surrounding blade and pulsatory motion generated as fluid being blocked and opened by blade due to turbine structure. This two phenomena cause to lower power production efficiency and shorten turbine durability. So this is studied to minimize bubble generation and pulsation for optimizing design of turbine blade. Therefore it is determined that the number of blade is three, geometric form of blade is NACA 4420 and angle of blade is 30 degree. An experiment equipment of water turbine is manufactured on the base of these factors(NACA 4420, angle 30。). It is obtained that power production of turbine increases in proportion to velocity which is changed from 1.7 m/sec to 3.5 m/sec. When fluid velocity is 1.7m/sec the power production of turbine is 355W. Power production increase continuously as increasing the fluid velocity and power is 2kW on 3m/sec of fluid velocity.
