Hydro Info Systems introduces TURBNPRO, the only software of its kind created to develop information on hydroturbines, their selection and application under specific site conditions.  

          Take the mystery out of

      selecting the right hydroelectric

·        For a hydroelectric power project application, quickly estimate how large and what type of hydroturbine would best apply

TURBNPRO determines hydroturbine sizing and type selection based on actual site data entered by the User. Typical performance and dimensional data of the hydroturbine size/type selected are developed by the program including speed, runaway speed and cavitation characteristics. TURBNPRO includes extensive graphics showing turbine performance tin various formats as well as identification of major turbine components and dimensions.

·        For hydro-project feasibility studies, assess the project's annual energy production potential

TURBNPRO may be used to calculate the energy production, applying the turbine solution(s) created and the User’s site net head and flow data. In optimizing project energy potential study single or multiple turbine solutions.

·        Quickly consider alternative solution possibilities

Advantages, disadvantages and limitations of the various water turbine configurations/arrangements are discussed. The impact of cavitation on hydroturbine sizing and type selection is also covered.

All major turbine types are covered including Francis, Axial/propeller, and Pelton
