Turbulent Hydro | Micro hydro-power 101: How to measure a site for a vortex turbine @TurbulentHydro | Uploaded May 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Are you wondering if your potential hydro-power site is feasible ?
In this video, we will be covering all the techniques and formulas we need to determine measure if the head (height difference) and flow of a river are suitable for a vortex turbine, and we will also teach you how to apply these values in order to calculate the amount of power you will be able to generate.
You can use these timecodes to easily navigate through the video :
0:00 Introduction & Formula
2:40 Head (height difference) measurment
9:08 Flow measurment
15:13 Efficiency factor
16:45 Available power calculation
