This article addresses the simulation and experiments performed on a Gorlov Helical Turbine (GHT) by altering the index of revolution of its helical blades. Gorlov Helical Turbine is a hydrokinetic turbine that generates energy from the perennial/tidal source. The paper serves a two-fold purpose: parametric optimisation of Gorlov Helical Turbine with respect to the index of revolution and viability of installing the turbines in river creeks. Nine models of turbines with a diameter of 0.600 m and a height of 0.600 m were generated with different indices of revolution and then subjected to simulation studies. A significant rise in the output torque of the turbine was not observed with the various indices of revolution, even as the probability of finding a section at every azimuthal position is likely to rise. Gavasheli's solidity ratio formula was used to formulate an expression for the output power. The output power as per analytical formulation is 1.11 W, which is of the order of output power obtained through simulation (0.951 W). The studies suggest that 0.25 remains the optimum value for the index of revolution of the helical blades. A model with 0.25 as the index of revolution was fabricated and tested at a river creek. The results were found to agree with the simulations accounting for the losses. The study results could encourage setting up hydrokinetic turbines in river creeks, thereby increasing the grid capacity of SHPs in India.

“…Besides the goal of the study is to determine the best wrapping material for strengthening the integrity and reliability of piping systems with defects by comparing the results of the simulations. Composite materials, such as Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) and Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP), have gained prominence in the oil and gas sector due to their unique properties, including low density, corrosion resistance, and superior mechanical characteristics [2,3]. By employing composite wrapping, the need for costly and time-consuming pipe replacements, caused by defects like gouges, pits, and splits, can be mitigated [4,5].…”

This study examined the application of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) as wrapping structures for defective pipe systems. The structural behavior and performance of the CFRP and GFRP wrapping structures were assessed using computational simulation methodologies. The goal of the study was to determine the best wrapping material for strengthening the integrity and reliability of piping systems with defects by comparing the results of the simulations. The study evaluated the capability of the proposed composite wrapping structure through CAD simulation. The simulations provided preliminary analysis and visually depicted deformations, aiding in the selection of an optimized lamination orientation for the composite wrapping structure in real-world applications. Eventually, this approach could have alleviated two primary failure modes that were common in composite repair: composite overloading due to excessive thickness and composite delamination from the substrate. The results of this study would have helped enhance effective and efficient pipe repair techniques in a variety of industries by offering useful insights into the selection and use of suitable wrapping structures for repairing defective pipes.
