Rancang Bangun Pembangkit Listrik Sistem Gravitasi Vortex menggunakan Sudu Jenis Straight Blades dengan Debit Aliran 1350 Lpm

Abstract

Gravitational Water Vortex Turbine is one of clean energy, which uses one of the widely used alternative energy sources, namely water. This power plant is also included in the pychohydro power plant category, because this turbine uses hydropower as its driving force, by utilizing the potential energy of falling water (head) and the amount of water discharge. The purpose of this design is to know the design of the GWVT system. This GWVT system is pycohydro scale, because it produces power of < 5 Kw. In the design of the GWVT system with a flow rate of 0.0225 m3 / s obtained basin height of 0.9 m with a diameter of 1.4 m and an outlet of 0.2m and cone basin angle of 67o. The runner blade design has 5 blades with t = 0.3 m and a runner width of 0.7 m with a diameter of 20 mm and a length of 110 cm.
