Viability study of implementing cross flow helical turbine for Micropower generation in India

V. jayaram

Abstract


The proposed study investigates the viability of implementing vertical flow helical turbine (which are known for its self-starting capability) for power generation from tidal/River sources. A micropower system is proposed to provide incessant power on the order of 20 Watts in general, so a system comprises of 30 to 40 individual units each producing approximately 0.6 Watts
