Abstract: Timor-Leste electrification depends on diesel power plant and all communicities in the territory are almost electrified. As Timór-Lorosa’e has good rainfall conditions, it is important to develop hydropower energy for saving energy and keeping good environment. In this reseash, we try to increase in the turbine pelton efficiency with minimum head 4m. The output diameter of penstock with optimum inclination is also investigated how to obtain turbine pelton efficiency.
Keywords: pelton turbine, efficiency, penstock, inclination
