Renewable Energy Problems



Suppose 0.01 m3/s of water is taken from a creek and delivered through 150 m of pipe to a 40% efficient turbine/generator 50 m lower than the source.

a.       Assuming locally available Poly pipe comes in 1 cm diameter increments (starting with 2 cm), pick a pipe size to keep flow to less than a recommended speed of 2 m/s.

b.       In a 30‐day month, how much energy would be provided?

c.        With a 5‐nozzle Pelton wheel, what diameter jets would be appropriate?
