| dc.description.abstract | The demand of Indonesian energy is growing faster and the non-renewable energy has decreased very rapidly, so the
government tries to explore for an alternative energy to prevent future scarcity of energy resources. One alternative used
is to utilize water energy. Water is one of the most renewable and environmental friendly energy, so it has the potential to
reduce dependence on current energy usage (petroleum, oil, gas, and coal). The purpose of this research is to simulate
effect of turbine type and water flowrate to the power generated by Micro Hydro Power Plants (MHPP). The research
method uses experimental design with null hypothesis: there is no effect of turbine type to the power generated by water
turbine and there is no effect of water flow rate to the power generated by MHPP. There are two types of MHPP, namely
Pelton and Crossflow types. The research result rejected the null hypothesis, it means that there is an effect of turbine
type to the power generated by water turbine and there is an effect of water flowrate to the power generated by water
turbine. | en_US |
