Parametric analysis on a simple design water reaction turbine for low-head low-flow Pico-hydro generation system

This paper presents a parametric analysis of the outward flow reaction type turbine known as a Z-Blade turbine for low-head low-flow conditions. By applying the principles of mass conservation, momentum and energy, a nomogram was designed to investigate the theoretical performance characteristics. B...
