eng.hydropower-turbine Calculator
Calculates hydropower generation capacity from net head, flow rate, and turbine-generator efficiency. Hydropower P = ρgQHη — a 10m head, 1 m³/s flow, 85% efficient system generates approximately 83 kW continuously.
Inputs
Flow M3S
Volume of fluid per unit time. Used to size pipes, pumps, and ducts.
Head M
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
Turbine Efficiency Pct
Useful output divided by total input, as a percentage. 100% is impossible due to losses (heat, friction, resistance).
Generator Efficiency Pct
Useful output divided by total input, as a percentage. 100% is impossible due to losses (heat, friction, resistance).
Results
output power (kW)
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
hydraulic power available (kW)
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
overall efficiency
Useful output divided by total input, as a percentage. True 100% efficiency is impossible — losses appear as heat. LEDs: 30–50%. Electric motors: 85–97%. Switching supplies: 85–95%.
P = ρgQH×η
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
annual energy (GWh at 85% CF)
The result expressed on a per-year basis.
turbine type
The classification or type assigned based on the inputs.
