3kw Propeller Turbine Blade Design Based on Tidal Range ijtsrd
Tidal energy is a largely untapped, renewable energy source based on lunar gravitation rather than solar radiation. The generation of electricity from tides is very similar to hydroelectric generation. Tidal energy is clean and not depleting. The tidal schemes may be of single pool or double pool or multi pool. Two types of tidal power plant are barrage style tidal power plant and tidal current power plant. Among them, barrage style tidal power plant was chosen to suit local condition and facilities in Myanmar. Several different turbine configuration are possible. The propeller turbine designed is based on tidal head and flow rate of Kanbalar Creek. The maximum and minimum head of tidal range is 5 m and 2 m. The available flow rate is 0.46 m3 s. The type of turbine is chosen by using 2 m head and 0.46 m3 s flow rate. Therefore, 3 kW propeller turbine is designed in this paper. Then, calculated runner diameter is 280 mm, hub diameter is 112 mm and number of blade is four. Two dimensional blade profile is calculated by using MATLAB program software and drawn AutoCAD software.
