ORNL to 3D print large-scale hydropower turbine components in a new DOE-funded project
The US Department of Energy (DOE)s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is leading a new initiative to 3D print large metal runners used in dams for hydropower generation. These rotating components convert the movement of water into electricity. Called Rapid Research on Universal Near Net Shape Fabrication Strategies for Expedited Runner Systems, or Rapid RUNNERS, []
