Analisa pengaruh sudut sudu terhadap kinerja turbin kinetik poros horisontal dan vertikal

Abstract

Kinetic turbine is a type of power plant that utilizes the energy stored in the water flow ie potential energy and kinetic energy that will be converted into mechanical energy. One of the factors that affect turbine performance is angle angle. The research methodology in this kinetic turbine utilizes the fluid velocity (water) that moves with. The variation of the flow steering angle with the angle to be studied uses an angle of 5 ° 10 °, 15 ° and flow rate variation 50, 70 and 90 m³ / hr. In addition, this kinetic turbine uses vertical and horizontal axis variations. Based on the result of the research, it can be concluded that the maximum output power produced by turbine at 1.53 Watt occurred at 90 m3 / hr discharge with flowing direction angle of 15⁰. The highest efficiency of 18% occurs at a flow rate of 50 m3 / h with a flow direction angle of 15⁰. Horizontal axle turbines have slightly higher power and efficiency values when compared to a vertical axle turbine.
