Turbnpro KC4: A Comprehensive Guide to Hydraulic Turbines and Their Performance




Hydraulic turbines are devices that convert the kinetic and potential energy of water into mechanical power or electricity. They are widely used in hydropower plants, irrigation systems, water supply systems, and other applications that require water flow and pressure. Hydraulic turbines can be classified into different types based on their design, operation, and performance characteristics. Some of the common types of hydraulic turbines are:



  • Pelton turbine: A type of impulse turbine that uses one or more buckets mounted on a wheel to capture the jet of water from a nozzle.



  • Francis turbine: A type of reaction turbine that uses a spiral-shaped casing and a runner with fixed or adjustable blades to create a pressure difference across the turbine.



  • Kaplan turbine: A type of reaction turbine that uses a propeller-like runner with adjustable blades and a draft tube to optimize the flow conditions.



  • Bulb turbine: A type of reaction turbine that integrates the generator and the runner in a bulb-shaped housing submerged in the water.



  • Cross-flow turbine: A type of impulse turbine that uses a cylindrical drum with curved blades to extract energy from the water flow across the drum.




Selecting the most suitable type and size of hydraulic turbine for a given site is a complex and challenging task that requires careful analysis of various factors, such as:

  • The head and flow conditions of the site



  • The efficiency and performance curves of the turbine



  • The cost and availability of the turbine



  • The environmental and social impacts of the turbine




To assist hydraulic turbine engineers and designers in this task, Hydro Info Systems, a company that specializes in hydropower engineering and consulting, has developed a software program called Turbnpro KC4. Turbnpro KC4 is a software program that uses a database of hydroturbine performance and dimensional data to select and size hydroturbines based on actual site data entered by the user. The database contains data from various manufacturers and models of hydroturbines, covering a wide range of head and flow conditions.


Turbnpro KC4 has many features and benefits that make it a powerful and useful tool for hydroturbine design and analysis. Some of these features and benefits are:



  • It can handle various types of hydroturbines, such as Pelton, Francis, Kaplan, Bulb, Cross-flow, etc.



  • It can perform various calculations, such as net head, efficiency, power output, specific speed, unit speed, etc.



  • It can generate various outputs, such as graphs, tables, reports, etc.



  • It can display various graphics, such as site layout, turbine geometry, performance curves, etc.



  • It can export data to other formats, such as Excel, Word, PDF, etc.



  • It can import data from other sources, such as GIS, CAD, etc.



  • It can run on both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms, including Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 98, Windows 2000, and Windows Vista.




Turbnpro KC4 is designed to be user-friendly and easy-to-use. It has a simple and intuitive interface that guides the user through the steps of hydroturbine selection and sizing. The user can enter the site data manually or import it from other sources. The user can also modify the default settings and preferences according to their needs. Turbnpro KC4 then searches the database for the best matching hydroturbines based on the site data and displays the results in various formats. The user can compare different hydroturbines and select the most suitable one for their site. The user can also perform sensitivity analysis and optimization analysis to improve the performance and efficiency of the selected hydroturbine.


Turbnpro KC4 is a software program that determines hydroturbine sizing and type selection based on actual site data entered by the user. It is a comprehensive guide to hydraulic turbines and their performance. It is a valuable tool for hydropower engineers, designers, consultants, researchers, students, and anyone interested in hydroturbine technology. Turbnpro KC4 is available for purchase from Hydro Info Systems website.
