Abstract
This article considers the main methods of regulating water consumption and power of micro hydroelectric power plants. New technical solutions for screw jet turbines adapted to low pressures and water flow rates are proposed. The Archimede’s screw turbine is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly microhydropower technology that operates at high efficiency at low pressure and medium flow rates. In this case, the change in power depends on the following parameters: the number of blades, water flow, the angle of inclination of the blades and the height of the pressure. Preliminary calculations carried out by the authors show that the power of a microhydroelectric power station depends on individual factors of the area. With an increase in the speed of the water flow, the speed of the water wheel also increases, and in turn, the electric power of the microhydroelectric power station increases.
