Emrgy Inc.: Performance Validation of Vertical Axis Hydrokinetic Turbine

Overview

Organization: Emrgy, Inc.

The data herein contains all data collected and used for the Performance Characterization Testing and Model Calibration of a Vertical Axis Hydrokinetic Turbine. The data includes performance data and durability data for the Hydrokinetic Turbine. The device performance data contains shaft RPM, turbine RPM, power output, flow velocity, pressure, and pressure drop across the turbine. The mechanical durability data includes stress and strain at varied depths and velocities. There is also an FEA analysis included. This TEAMER RFTS 4 (request for technical support) project was awarded to Emrgy, Inc. in collaboration with Alden Research Laboratory LLC (now Verdantas Flow Labs).
