Description
Summary:Due to falling of the fossil-based fuel, renewable energy becomes one of the most important sources of energy. Yet the demand is still low but expected in the future, the demand will be increase. With the advantage of new technology and expertise, the renewable energy field is expanding. The targets for renewable energy field are more than beyond fossil-based fuel due to unlimited sources. This paper describes the study taken to determine the amount of power that could be generated by flowing rainwater. In this study, rainwater will first be accumulated in a tank before being released as a stream of water onto a rotor.
