Hi, here I am again. This is also related to my previous threads. My question is: How do I calculate the power of generator in terms of speed(rpm) from a drive system (such as belt and chain drives)?

Really? Okay. So, am I be able to proceed on the transmission of power?

What if I assume the value of power and head as well as the volume flow rate to the specification of cross flow turbine? In order to proceed through the computation of my drive system?

I don't think that adding a heat pump is a good idea. At first, we need to design a I'm sorry for my bad attitude on my another thread. I'm just panicking. I can't think of right now. I'm really sorry.

I can't answer your questions. My mind Isn't thinking for a solution to my problem.

I don't know what to do now. I want to know how much energy does a hot waste water have. I don't even know if that energy would produce much power.

For now, I don't know if it is feasible. I can't decide if I have to do about it or not.

What do you mean by heat recovery from waste water?

Does it mean that the 3 meters of head and 150 cubic meters per day is not enough to produce much more power? Then what should I do now? Should I continue making a micro hydro scheme?

I don't get it. Does the volume flow rate of 150m^3/day is enough to get as much as more power?

I already calculated the power. The value of power is 2.33 kW. I also convert the units of volume flow rate, that is 0.001736m^3/s then multiplying it by the average number of room for hotel, which is 75 rooms. Then I have this value of 0.13m^3/s. I am not sure if I need to multiply the...

What do you mean by tensioning? What if I use both chain and belt drives, is that okay?

Okay. So, is it okay if I use a line shaft and a set of two v-belt pulleys? One is connected to the turbine and the other is connected to the generator.

In my computations, I used 3m net head. But I'm not sure if it is suitable for hotel wastewater. And also, I have this problem in determining the average wastewater discharge of a hotel. Google suggest that the average is 150 cubic meter per day. I don't know if that is enough to produce a much...

Hi, I am here again. Sorry if this thread is not that related here in this field. I just want to ask, if I have to build a micro hydropower scheme in a wastewater of a hotel, what net head is suitable to use? (Sorry, I can't construct a clear sentence).
