Abstract
Performance evaluation of water wheel turbine using DC generator. The exercise demonstrates the operation of renewable energy, particularly hydroelectric power. It instructs on how to operate test apparatus correctly in order to assess the water wheel turbine with a DC generator. It illustrates the variables that impact the generation of electricity.
Performance evaluation of various-sized centrifugal pumps as hydro turbines. A hydro turbine can be converted from a centrifugal pump to produce energy. One way to accomplish that is to switch the centrifugal pump's flow direction. The two centrifugal pump sizes used in the exercise are the 3" and 4" sizes. Different pump was tested as a hydro turbine to determine how well it performs when producing power by converting a DC generator to AC in order to turn on lights.
The biomass shredder's design, construction and performance evaluation. The machine was constructed using carefully chosen and reasonably priced materials. The biomass shredder was designed to be low-cost, effective and able to be connected to a renewable energy source using a low-horsepower electric motor.
The hydro vortex turbine design, construction and performance assessment. Created and altered a turbine's impeller to increase power generation efficiency, in addition to the hydro vortex turbine set-up. The hydro turbine's performance study reveals that, with the immediate supervisor's assistance and supervision, the changed impeller increased the turbine's ability to generate energy.
