Argumentation of the Optimal Hydrodynamic Profile of Blades of the Flow Microhydrostation Rotor’s
Journal Title: HIDRAULICA - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 4
Abstract
Insistent searches of authors have led to the design and licensing of some advanced technical solutions for outflow micro hydroelectric power plants. They are based on the hydrodynamic effect, generated by the hydrodynamic profile of blades and by the optimal blades’ orientation towards water streams with account of energy conversion at each rotation phase of the turbine rotor. The selection of the optimal blades hydrodynamic profile is very important for functional optimization of micro hydro power plants. It will allow increasing the conversion factor (Betz coefficient) due to the hydrodynamic buoyant force. Due to the fact that the relative velocity of blades concerning the water currents is twice bigger, practically, at their motion against the water currents, the hydrodynamic lift force is relatively big, and the generated torque is commensurable to the one generated by the water pressure.
