BAHARI TURBINES
The Bahari turbine employs three unique steps. For starters, it eliminates the requirement for a bucket splitter by utilizing prior Pelton technology, i.e. individual buckets. Second, it reduces the injector aperture by at least half the size of the Pelton injector aperture. Finally, it employs thin injector apertures such as elliptical or rectangular injector apertures.
Benefits
Smallest weight to power ratio among all hydro turbines
Smallest wetted area of the buckets among the impulse, thus produces lowest bucket friction loss
Highest jet deflection angles , 170-177degree when compared to Turgo and Pelton turbine, which have deflection angle between 155-170degree
Low installation cost, wide site applicability range among the impulse and high turbine efficiency
Potential Application
Prime mover for generators
Isolated or grid connected turbine generators
