Abstract

Small hydropower plants are getting more and more attention in present days. There is more utilization for so called micro sources (micro hydropower plants) with output power of couple of units, maximum couple of tens of kW, which use water pump as a turbine. Those applications are cheap, low maintenance demanding and provide solution as a power source for remote objects specially in mountain regions. Aim of this bachelor thesis is to analyze the behavior of current model setup and design a topology which allows to use the motor with turbine as a generator supplying, for example household operating in island mode, with electricity.
