Simulation and Analysis of a Rain-Powered Pelton Turbine
This study presents numerical simulations and analysis of rain power Pelton wheel turbine for a household application. The material used and compared in the simulation are ABS AND A390 Aluminum Alloy. An average rainfall data was used in the modeling simulation with different head height and number of buckets. Torque, RPM and Shaft Power were simulated using SolidWorks. Based on the simulation the 22 & 24 number of buckets at a height of 3 meter have a close result with the two dissimilar materials. In this research a rain power Pelton wheel turbine with different materials, varying height and number of buckets was simulated and analyzed.
