Yash, Your site could possibly generate about 600kW of electricity but I don't think it is economically feasible to implement. It would require a 7.5m dia kaplan/axial turbine or 60 units of 1.0m dia axial turbines operating in parallel.
One possible solution is the experimental hydro system wherein low head hydro power is converted to air pressure to operate a wind turbine. This type of system has no problem about siltation, blockage, fish kill and other problems encountered by other hydro turbines and improves the aeration or dissolved oxygen of the water. However, the latest system they implemented has only an overall efficiency of 25%. --- In [email protected], yash chawla <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Dear Friends > > If we can find some Micro Hydel Turbine so as to get Electrical power > that can be generated economically out of Flow of 59 cub Mtr/ Sec & a > head of 1.24 Mtrs run of the river model. > > Yash ------------------------ Yahoo!
