Several types of water turbines can be used in micro hydro installations, selection depending on the head of water, the volume of flow, and such factors as availability of local maintenance and transport of equipment to the site. For hilly regions where a waterfall of 50 meters or more may be available, a Pelton wheel can be used. For low head installations, Francis or propeller-type turbines are used. Very low head installations of only a few meters may use propeller-type turbines in a
1 · There are three types of hydropower facilities: impoundment, diversion, and pumped storage. Some hydropower plants use dams and some do not. Although not all dams were built for hydropower, they have proven useful for pumping tons of renewable energy to the grid. In the United States, there are more than 90,000 dams, of which less

The micro hydro power plant comprises weir, intake, penstock, forebay, turbine, and generator. The river water distracted at the weir through an intake; filter is attached at entry level to remove any impurities present in the water. Then the water is stored in forebay tank, which is located in the middle of penstock and the intake.
Abstract. Micro-hydro-electric power is both an efficient and reliable form of clean source of renewable energy. It can be an excellent method of harnessing renewable energy from small rivers and streams. The micro-hydro project designed to be a run -of-river type, because it requires very little or no reservoir in order to power the turbine.

Micro hydropower to generate electricity in Nepal started with Pharping plant with an installed capacity of 500 kW in 1911 followed by Sundarijal and Panauti, in 1936 and 1965 respectively. Up to 1980, the focus was laid primarily on large-scale power generation through large hydro and thermal means, the micro-hydro potential remained untapped.
The maximum power in that flow is about (4^3) x 0.5 x 1000 x 0.07 = just over 2000 watts. So the efficiency is just under 5% (100/2000). A standard micro hydro system (where water is channelled in a pipe) should have at least 50% overall efficiency, after all losses.
