i want information regarding micro hydro power plant

MICRO-HYDRO POWER
Introduction
Water power can be harnessed in many different ways.We can buil a barrage across an estuary and release water in a controlled manner through a
turbine. tidal flows can be utilised. large dams can generate large quantities of electricity as well as help in irrigation. wave power is an alternate form of hydro-power. Micro-hydro power is the small-scale harnessing of energy
from falling water. Their capacity ranges from from a few hundred watts up to 100 kW. The applications can vary from battery charging, food
processing to powering a small community or rural industry which is far from the power grid. Utilizing the water from a local river to power a small
factory or village can be a micro hydro project.

Scheme components
In the described scheme some of the water is guided along the side of a valley and is allowed to fall on a turbine via a penstock which in turn drives a generator that provides electricity for a workshop. The power generated can even be supplied to a local village.

Water into Watts
both the flow rate of the water and the head are necessary to determine the power generation capacity.
Theoretical power (P) = Flow rate (Q) x Head (H) x Gravity (g)
In the rural areas , the shaft power is
suitable for food processing in mills like oil , flour mills etc. The major choice is but conversion to electrical power. The power distribution can be through:
-small electrical distribution system
-by means of batteries which have to be returned periodically to the power house for recharging. The cost of setting up the grid is saved here.

Water power can be harnessed in many ways; tidal flows can be utilised to produce power by building a barrage across an estuary and releasing water in a controlled manner through a turbine; large dams hold water which can be used to provide large quantities of electricity; wave power is also harnessed in various ways. It is a technology that has been utilised throughout the world, by a diverse range of societies and cultures, for many centuries. Water can be harnessed on a large or a small scale - Table 1, below outlines the categories used to define the power output form hydropower. Micro-hydro power is the small-scale harnessing of energy from falling water; for example, harnessing enough water from a local river to power a small factory or village. This fact sheet will concentrate mainly at micro-hydro power.

Large- hydro


More than 100 MW and usually feeding into a large electricity grid

Medium-hydro


15 - 100 MW - usually feeding a grid

Small-hydro


1 - 15 MW - usually feeding into a grid

Mini-hydro


Above 100 kW, but below 1 MW; either stand alone schemes or more often feeding into the grid

Micro-hydro


From 5kW up to 100 kW; usually provided power for a small community or rural industry in remote areas away from the grid.

Pico-hydro


From a few hundred watts up to 5kW ,...
