Numerical Study of the Hydrodynamic Behavior of an Archimedes Screw Turbine by Experimental Data in order to Optimize Turbine Performance: The Genetic Algorithm

Renewable energy could solve the problems caused by fossil fuels. The Archimedes hydro screw turbine is a potential tool for generating power from river currents. In this paper, a turbine at a scale of 1:6 has been made. It is installed and tested at various flow rates. The system is optimized using...
