Скачать или смотреть First PIlot Project of Conical Basin Structure of GWVPP in Nepal by Vortex Energy Solution.

After rigorous research, the research team of Institute of Engineering, Pulchowk Campus has been successful in optimizing a design of new and innovative technology addressing the current energy crisis in Nepal. The team, including students and professors, has developed a new design of micro hydro power plant that is efficiently applicable in low head regions like the Terai region. This success can potentially be a revolution in electrifying rural communities of the country.
The Gravitational Water Vortex power plant is based on the principle of converting the potential energy of water with a powerful Gravitation Water Vortex (GWV) in a rotation tank to kinetic energy. This kinetic energy is focused as rotational energy of the turbine in the center of the GWV. The turbine converts the rotational energy of the GWV together with a generator to generate green electricity.
This patent pending design is implemented in Bagmati River at Gokarna, Kathmandu this week which is of 2 kW capacity. The electricity is supplied to an orphanage house and Martry’s Park near the site of installation. According to one of the inventor, they have taken the initiative to commercialize this project in various regions of Nepal by doing feasibility study at many locations. They have formed a company named Vortex Energy Solution Pvt. Ltd and have also initiated a movement named National Energy Movement to commercialize the project with the vision of “Energy for Global Leadership and Social Empowerment”. Their goal is to lessen the imbalance between energy supply and energy demand prevailing in the country by the effective utilization of this technology and bringing about economic benefit for all.
They have taken a goal that by the fifth year of the project, minimum of 50 GWVPP of capacity ranging from 5kw to 20 kW will be installed with continuation of the research in collaboration with Institute of Engineering (TU), Turbine Testing Lab of Kathmandu University School of Engineering, and University of Bristol, United Kingdom.
