Abstract

This study is aimed at development of the extra-low head water turbine for an open channel from a viewpoint of using effectively unused hydropower energies, such as an irrigation channel Then, paying attention to the cross-flow runner, authors eliminated the casing and tried the application as a water turbine for an open channel (Undershot Type Cross-Flow Water Turbine) In this paper, water turbine performance and internal flow of water turbine were investigated by experiments and a CFD analysis in constant flow rate The results showed that the position of inflow and outflow in the runner from volume fraction and radial velocity distributions
