Abstract :
Amount of the energy contained in the Earth´s water cycle is huge, but its use is difficult. The most common method is the production of hydroelectric power stations. In today´s society, small hydro power plants present the most efficient, ecological and economic way of generation of the electricity. These plants create a part of acquirement of electric current from the renewable resources. This contribution describes the function of hydro power plants and turbines, mainly Kaplan. Article introduces small hydro power plant Sulin and presents technical solutions concerning the proposal of construction of the turbine and the analysis of the inflow part of turbine´s body containing the proposal of new turbine blades.
