- Abstract
Indonesia is one of the richest countries, with 70% of its areas abundant in water. These advantages can be utilized for the necessities of life, for example, building the hydroelectric power plant considering that some areas in Indonesia have yet to be reached by electricity. Hence, this work was conducted by the preliminary study of Pelton turbines on the laboratory scale to verify their performance in the real condition to flow electricity. This work started by analyzing the effect of speed-variable control on electrical power. The speed variable is controlled by managing the guide valve at various angles, i.e., 60°, 70°, 80°, and 90°. The larger the guide valve angle produces, the more flowing water with a high velocity. That condition caused the blade turbine to rotate at a high velocity and take effect on the electrical power generated by the Pelton turbine. Furthermore, it can be concluded that the faster-flowing water will affect the rotation of the blade turbine, which generates a large amount of electrical power.
