Abstract: VIDA, ANGELITO E. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. "TECHNICAL AND ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF A MICRO-HYDRO BATTERY CHARGER". April 1998. Adviser: ENGR. CAMILO A. POLINGA A micro-hydropower system was evaluated for battery charging at the Villa Colmenar Resort in Tambo Kulit, Indang, Cavite. The charging power, charging time, charging voltage, and charging current were determined and analyzed. The efficiency of the system was also determined. Performance test of the system was conducted at a head of and at different discharge conditions of the 10.45 ABSTRACT battery. The system was tested at constant head and four (4) discharge conditions of the battery. The batteries were discharged using or (4) units 12-V, 21 CP, bulbs to reach the different discharged condition of 50%, 75% and 100%. The batteries were charged individually. Results showed that the system reached an average charging Power of 46.61 watts, average charging current of 3.21 amperes, average charging voltage of 14.71 volts, and charging time of 7.63 hours. The system's efficiency with respect to the theoretical waterpower was on the average of 6.59%. The system was very small to fit the theoretical waterpower of the head being used. The system amounted to P5, 102.50. vii automotive 25%.

A micro-hydropower system was evaluated for battery charging at the Villa Colmenar
Resort in Tambo Kulit, Indang, Cavite. The charging power, charging time, charging voltage, and
charging current were determined and analyzed. The efficiency of the system was also
determined. Performance test of the system was conducted at a head of and at different
discharge conditions of the 10.45 ABSTRACT battery. The system was tested at constant head
and four (4) discharge conditions of the battery. The batteries were discharged using or (4) units
12-V, 21 CP, bulbs to reach the different discharged condition of 50%, 75% and 100%. The
batteries were charged individually. Results showed that the system reached an average
charging Power of 46.61 watts, average charging current of 3.21 amperes, average charging
voltage of 14.71 volts, and charging time of 7.63 hours. The system's efficiency with respect to
the theoretical waterpower was on the average of 6.59%. The system was very small to fit the
theoretical waterpower of the head being used. The system amounted to P5, 102.50. vii
automotive 25%.
