Abstract
The energy extraction from hydrodynamic fluid is one of the primary tasks in the hydro energy sector. Because of the unstable availability of water, the efficient tool is compulsory to provide required average energy. Comparatively, all other tools in hydro energy sector, the rotor and its dynamic nature play a top role to generate high energy from hydro fluid. In this work deals an innovative and integrative conceptual design of hydro rotor and its hydrodynamic performance estimations. Fundamentally, this proposed rotor is oriented horizontally added with twisted wing component. Comparative analyses also executed with normal twisted plates. Because of the implementation of twisted wing, the torque production is quite higher than other models. Computational hydrodynamic analysis is the methodology used in this work with the help of CFD tool i.e., ANSYS Fluent 17.2. In which, the conceptual design of all the complicated hydro rotors are modelled in CATIA.
