Low Head Hydropower for Local Energy Solutions

Low Head Hydropower for Local Energy Solutions

The role of small hydropower is becoming increasingly important on a global level. Increasing energy demand and environmental awareness has further triggered research and development into sustainable low-cost technologies. In developing countries particularly in rural areas the possibility of local power generation could considerably improve living conditions. With this in mind the development of a next generation low-head hydropower machines was subject of investigation in the EU-project HYLOW. Being part of the research lines of that project this thesis presents a numerical modelling approach to improve the design of machines like water wheels for increased hydraulic efficiency. Nowadays Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) enables numerical models to be quite accurate and incorporate physical complexities like free surfaces and rotating machines. The results of the CFD simulations carried out in this research show that a change in blade geometry can result in higher torque levels thereby increasing performance. Numerical simulations also enabled to determine the optimal wheel-width to channel-width ratio and further improve performance by modifying the channel bed conditions upstream and downstream of the water wheel. With a power rating in the low kilowatt range low-head hydropower machines like optimised water wheels seem to have a clear potential for small-scale energy generation thereby contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by providing local energy solutions. | Low Head Hydropower for Local Energy Solutions

A Practical Guide to Construction of Hydropower Facilities

Integrated Operation of Hydropower Stations and Reservoirs/Exploitation des centrales hydroélectriques et des Réservoirs

Integrated Operation of Hydropower Stations and Reservoirs/Exploitation des centrales hydroélectriques et des Réservoirs

Integrated operation of hydropower stations and reservoirs has become a trend of hydropower exploitation as an effective technical measure integrated operation can improve the utilization efficiency of water resources reduce the risks of flood and drought disaster increase the safety and stability power grid and make sure that hydropower stations and reservoirs operate in an appropriate and economical way. This bulletin gives an overview of the main functional and operational aspects relating to cascade hydropower stations and reservoirs it was formed by reviewing of all the related aspects proposed and case studies provided by committee members. It collected and sorted out operation modes and practical experiences of hydropower stations and reservoirs in ICOLD member countries summarized the feasibility measures benefit evaluation methods and system platform construction of hydropower stations and reservoirs with comprehensive benefits and shared case studies from 10 countries including Brazil China France Iran Japan Korea Nigeria Russia Switzerland and USA. L'exploitation intégrée des centrales hydroélectriques et des réservoirs est devenue une mesure technique efficace de l'exploitation hydroélectrique. L'exploitation intégrée peut améliorer l'efficacité d'utilisation des ressources en eau réduire les risques de catastrophe d'inondation et de sécheresse augmenter la sécurité et la stabilité du réseau électrique et faire fonctionner les centrales hydroélectriques et les réservoirs de manière appropriée et économique. Ce bulletin donne un aperçu des principaux aspects fonctionnels et opérationnels relatifs aux centrales hydroélectriques et réservoirs en cascade. Il passe en revue tous les aspects connexes proposés et des études de cas fournies par les membres du comité. Il rassemble les modes de fonctionnement et les expériences pratiques des centrales hydroélectriques et des réservoirs dans les pays membres de la CIGB. Il résume les mesures de faisabilité les méthodes d'évaluation des avantages et la construction de plates-formes de systèmes de centrales hydroélectriques et de réservoirs avec des avantages complets. Il bénéficie des expériences et des études de cas de 10 pays y compris Brésil Chine Corée France Iran Japon Nigéria Russie Suisse et USA. | Integrated Operation of Hydropower Stations and Reservoirs/Exploitation des centrales hydroélectriques et des Réservoirs
