DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF CROSS FLOW TURBINE
Abstract
The cross-flow hydraulic turbine was gaining popularity in low head and small water flow rate, in establishment of small hydro-power plant, due to its simple structure and ease of manufacturing in the site of the power plant. To obtain a cross-flow turbine with maximum efficiency, the turbine parameters must be included in the design. We have worked on the design and fabrication of cross flow turbine. We have redesigned the blades of the turbine to improve the efficiency and productivity of the turbine.
