Abstract

In order to solve the problem of velocity profile in low-velocity water area with micro-head, a collection device is designed on the basis of turbine shroud, so that the turbine can collect low velocity flow ahead of time. By combining numerical simulation and experiment, the influence of installing acquisition device on the hydrodynamic performance of the turbine in non-uniform flow is studied. The results show that the influence of velocity gradient on the hydrodynamic performance of the turbine can be reduced by installing the acquisition device. The influence of velocity profile on the hydrodynamic performance of the turbine can be reduced by installing a data acquisition device, which is obvious at low velocity. At the same time, the output power can be increased by 2.2 times and the starting flow rate can be reduced by about 0. 1 m/s.
