RISExperiments and CFD Analyses for a New Reaction Microhydro Propeller with Five Blades
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This works aims to develop and study a new reaction microhydro tubular propeller turbine with five blades as a promising answer to solve the lack of energy in rural and remote areas. The first stage is to validate numerical ...
Damping Analysis of Hydraulic Transients in Pump-Rising Main Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper focuses on the analysis of unsteady pipe flows caused by a pump trip in a water pipeline system. Field experiments have been carried out to collect transient pressure and steady-state flow rate data in the ...
Opportunity and Economic Feasibility of Inline Microhydropower Units in Water Supply Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Small-scale hydropower is emerging as a decentralized source to satisfy local demand for electricity. In water supply systems, microhydropower can be used for energy recovery associated with excessive pressure control. ...

Potential Energy, Economic, and Environmental Impacts of Hydro Power Pressure Reduction on the Water-Energy-Food Nexus
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The installation of hydropower pressure reduction (HPPR) technology in water supply networks (WSN) has recently been encouraged to limit water losses through leakage. Traditionally, pressure reducing valves (PRVs) were ...
