Abstract

This thesis presents the designing and developing of cross flow delta-wing water turbine for Pahang River. Cross flow turbine is a hydroelectric power source that is clean, renewable and low in manufacturing cost. Through the analysis of the water flow rates and head will obtained the most suitable type of water turbine system for the Pahang River. The main problem is to choose the best water turbine system suitable for flow rate and water source of Pahang River. Other than that, designing the most suitable propeller for the turbine is the main criteria to be taken in this research. River is a natural water source that has unpredictable water flow rates depends on the weather condition. The analysis and investigation of the propeller is to obtain the velocity streamline and pressure of different blade angle from different water velocities. The CFD simulations results of the different blade angles of the propeller are compared to obtain the best propeller design. The final propeller model is then fabricated using appropriate materials and technique.
