PENGOPERASIAN KEMBALI RIBUAN KINCIR AIR DI SUMATERA BARAT MELALUI PENGEMBANGAN SISTEM KINCIR TEKNOLOGI CROSS FLOW (KATCF)
Abstract: Not water wheel
operation of thousands of them in West Sumatra caused by many conditions that
have an old windmill and broken while the quality of wood raw material to
rebuild the water wheel increasingly difficult to obtain even
if there are
very expensive. In
an effort to
facilitate community rebuild
water wheel plant, researchers had the idea to make
modifications to the system of wheel revolution. In the process of this
research turbine modification will replace the wood material into a material
such as steel plate steel, U steel, steel elbow, steel shaft and are easily
available in the market at affordable prices. Besides, in this modification
process will adopt a touch of cross flow turbine technology to be applied to
the wheel under study. From the results of testing the efficiency of prime
movers KATCF known trend of relatively constant efficiency for each of the
percentage change in discharge
initiated discharge 25%
to 100%. The
percentage of discharge
100% or 100
liters/s obtained an efficiency
of 51%. Thus,
the quality of
prime movers KATCF
built quite satisfactory
and can be proud of.
