Cost analysis of pico hydro turbine for power production

Background: Turbine played a significant role in the hydro system and a determinant of the quality and quantity production of electric power in each power system. Objective: In this paper, several types of pico hydro water turbines are reviewed and compared. The water head, water flow rate and the c...
