Development of free flow water turbine floating platform for 5kW electric power generator / Mohamad Yasir Ab Rahman

The free flow water turbine project is meant to provide electricity to the UiTM Perhilitan Research Station at Kuala Keniam, Pahang. The concept of free flow water turbine is by using hydro power which is the river current to turn the turbine that operates the electric power generator. The scope of...
