Development of design principles for modular hydraulic turbines for small and micro HPP’s

The article discusses the fundamentals of developing a methodology for designing modular hydro units small and micro hydropower plants (HPPs), as well advantages such units. A forming restricting normal nomenclature turbines based on probabilistic analysis range energy parameters most commonly encountered in Russia is proposed. Unlike traditional turbines, execution main turbine proposed, which will allow serial production. Based calculations data analysis, optimal fields applicability designed have been constructed. Structural has conducted.
