Abstract
Banki Turbine is very popular, especially for micro hydroelectric power plant. Increasing power and efficiency still the main topic for researchers. One of the point to increase the power by modification of the blade profile. The purpose of this research was to find out the best blade profile to increase the power of banki water turbine. The observation focus on output power and flow contour inside the runner of the turbine. In this research, the blade profile would be made in 5 variants. Variant P1 as a standard and other 4 variants P2, P3, P4, and P5 were the modification profile. The experiment would be conducted by CFD software simulation. The head of water was 5.5 m and discharge 2 m3/min. Based on the simulation test result showed that variant P 4 was the highest with power increase more than 10% compare to the variant standard P1 and the good flow trajectory contour compare to others.
