Design of pico-hydro turbine by using a pump as a generator

Nowadays, hydropower is one of the significant renewable energy that most developed. This source of energy is hugely known as an environmental friendly operation put it as a main choice among other salvage source of energy. The objective of this project is to design a pico hydro turbine that can gen...
