Computer simulation and turbine development for free flowing water generator / Mohd Ridhwan Hizami Abd Rashid

Hydroelectric is an alternative way to convert mechanical energy into electricity by harnessing the flow of the rivers to run a turbine. The suitable design of river water turbine is needed to make sure that it maintains speed with flow rate at variable season during monsoon and drought. In order to...
