Techno-Economic Evaluations: An Innovative of Hydraulic Reaction Turbine for Pico-Hydro Generation System

The primary goal of this paper is to evaluate an innovative Z-Blade turbine technology and its potential implications for production costs manufacturing techniques. From literatures, conventional pico-hydro technologies with a capability less than 5kW are getting more attention as good alternatives environmentally friendly power generation, but there expensive complex small generation domestic consumer level. Therefore, reaction technical environmental processes well financial research described in-depth. methods Z-blade design implementation here, also the material using grey PVC pipe. Moreover, empirical description, designation, costing, correlation employed in process critically analysing simple water novels. Also article, manufacture Split Reaction Turbine (SRT) Cross Pipe (CPT) was re-evaluated take into consideration technological economic factors difficulties both turbines. In meantime, low-head, low-flow resources used examine additional features Z-Blade. Theoretically, such platform hydro cost - effective has simplistic methodology total USD76 that equates 7.6% overall installation worthy output up 115W mechanical energy.
