Your low head site needs an axial flow turbine. Your power assumption is some optimistic. I think max. electrical power that could be harnessed is about 10 kW with a good efficiency turbine. You may contact in TEPERSA, Mr. Celso Davila, in Peru, how builts axial flow turbines: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Regards, Carlos ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: "brunette_phil" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, January 24, 2005 10:36 PM Subject: [microhydro] Need turbine source > > > > I have a site with about 8 feet of head and a flow rate of 800 litres per > second. > It should produce about 12Kw but I'm having difficulty locating a turbine > manufacturer that makes a unit this small (wanting to drive an AC > generator) > > Anyone have any suggestions? > > Thanks > Phil > > > > > > > > > > Does your company feature in the microhydro business directory at > http://microhydropower.net/directory ?
