The Development of a Decision Support Software for the Design of Micro-Hydropower Schemes Utilizing a Pump as Turbine
Pumps As Turbines (PATs) are a class of unconventional hydraulic turbines consisting of standard water pumps working in reverse mode as the prime mover. Such devices can be well suited for either in-pipe energy recovery or small-scale hydropower, but their practical application is hampered by the la...
