Abstract
This thesis describes the construction of the micro hydro portable power from theoretical calculation and concept, planning on the design, choosing the best and suitable materials and components and lastly the presentation of the prototype itself. Renewable energy is said to be the next important fuel to supply electricity to the grid. Many utility companies nowadays are showing more effort on trying to integrate renewable energy into the grid as the source is abundance. This prototype is another way to utilize renewable energy and suitable to those who lived far away from the main grid especially in the rural area.
Several conditions are being tested on the prototype to observe the response of the prototype and obtained the data to know the availability of the prototype when meet the conditions. The volume rate of inflow water is set to be different to observe the effect of volume rate with electrical energy produced. The head is tested with two different heights to observe the efficiency of the prototype corresponding to the optimization of the design for the prototype.
