Breast wheels
breast wheel sizing |
Breast wheels: the water enters the wheel approximately at the level of the axis: 1.5m,
turned both by the weight of the water carried in the buckets and by the impulse
of the water striking the wheel. Undershot wheels: the water enters the wheel below
the axis: 0.3m |

Hydro
Power Micro Hydropower (from hydro meaning water and micro meaning small
scale) refers to electrical energy that comes from the force of moving water
used to power a household or small village, pdf file |
Hydro Power Calculator
A very small script that will calculate the theoretical potential hydropower of
a certain stream.If Discharge Carrying Capacity(cubic meter/sec) of the
stream,available Head(meter) and specific weight of water is given(kg/cubic
meter), the calculator will calculate the potential hydropower(P) of the stream
in m kg/sec |
Hydropower Production calculator
calculates the hydropower energy production from a falling water with specified

Pelton wheel
The Pelton wheel is among the most efficient types of water turbines. It was
invented by Lester Allan Pelton (1829–1908) in the 1870s. The Pelton wheel
extract energy from the impulse (momentum) of moving water, as opposed to its
weight like traditional overshot water wheel |

Turbines
Water under pressure contains energy. Turbines convert the energy in water into
rotating mechanical energy. Impulse turbines convert the kinetic energy of a jet
of water to mechanical energy. Reaction turbines convert potential energy in
pressurized water to mechanical energy, pdf file |
