  1. MCS Certification and data acquisition techniques 10kWDual Regulated Kaplan Turbine

  2. What’s it all About?

  3. MCS Certification • What was the Purpose? • What Will I Show You? Introduction 1. MCS Certification 2. Obtaining the Data 3. The Results

  4. Obtaining the Data • What was the Purpose? • What Will I Show You? Introduction 1. MCS Certification 2. Obtaining the Data 3. The Results

  5. The Results • What was the Purpose? • What Will I Show You? Introduction 1. MCS Certification 2. Obtaining the Data 3. The Results

  6. MCS Certification Current Situation? Why Bother? How Does One Obtain Certification?

  7. Obtaining Data What data did we need? • Electrical power output • Upstream River Level • Turbine Tank Level • Downstream River Level • Water Velocity…(to be continued!) • And actuator positions……Identifies steady state conditions

  8. River Levels Power Readings

  9. Obtaining Flow Data • Insertion Flow Meter Required • Pitot-Static Tube £900! +/- 0.25ms-1 (Voelkner, 2014) (Bright Hub Engineering, 2010) (Setra Solutions, 2014) =0.235 psi = 2.9e-3 psi Other options considered, but there just isn’t time!

  10. Obtaining Flow Data What We Actually Used!

  11. Obtaining Run-Away Data

  12. Flow Regime • Calibration • Second Run • Reliability of flow meter? Problems

  13. Calculations

  14. Calculations Sources of Head Loss

  15. Working Toward Mastery Achieve Mastery Get Experienced Projects Worked On Get Familiar Time Spent

  16. Doing Your Best Work • Working from home • Working offsite • Technology requirements

  17. Questions?
