Power generation from canal system using adjustable Twisted Blade Turbine

摘要

As natural head of water turbine has been used for power generation where the construction of a dam is infeasible. It works on natural flow of water to generate a specific power output. Although the velocity of canal water is less but the force of water is comparatively high. Pakistan has the largest canal system in the world and it can be implemented anywhere in the canal. At present, in Pakistan, energy crises are increasing day by day and hopefully this project can be helpful to minimize the same. The present work describes the development of a Twisted Blade Turbine which is simple in design, fabrication and maintenance which can produce sufficient power to light a couple of energy saver bulbs up to wattage of 30 to 40.
