Optimal Sizing of Low Head Hydropower Plant- A Case Study of Hydropower Project at Head of UCC (Lower) at Bambanwala
Pakistan is facing serious shortfall of electricity for few decades. Small hydropower projects can alleviate the worsening situation. The sizing of a low head hydropower plant plays a vital role in establishing the feasibility of the project. The plant needs to be optimized for energy produced, efficiencies of the plant components, number of units and its financial/economic parameters. This pap...
متن کاملOptimal Hydropower Reservoir Operation with Environmental Requirements
i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am thankful to my Committee Members for their contributions to this dissertation. I am most grateful to my major Professor, Jay Lund, for his enthusiastic guidance and endless ideas during these four years. His sense of humor contributed to having a pleasant work environment. I am indebted to Professor Richard Howitt for his valuable comments and for providing the computati...
متن کاملNumerical Study of a Pipe Extension Effect in Draft Tube on Hydraulic Turbine Performance
Draft tube of Francis type hydraulic turbine usually consists of: cone, elbow and diffuser. On the contrary, in some power stations an extra pipe should be added to the draft tube at the bottom of cone because of installation limitation. In this paper, this special case has been numerically studied. To this end CFD analysis was applied to simulate all parts of hydraulic turbine. A homogeneous m...
متن کاملOptimal Operation of Multi-Objective Hydropower Reservoir with Ecology Consideration
Aiming at the problem that traditional optimal operation of hydropower reservoir pays little attention to ecology, an optimal operation model of multi-objective hydropower reservoir with ecology consideration is established which combines the ecology and power generation. The model takes the maximum annual power generation benefit, the maximum output of the minimal output stage in the year and ...
متن کاملChaotic Optimal Operation of Hydropower Station with Ecology Consideration
Traditional optimal operation of hydropower station usually has two problems. One is that the optimal algorithm hasn’t high efficiency, and the other is that the optimal operation model pays little attention to ecology. And with the development of electric power market, the generated benefit is concerned instead of generated energy. Based on the analysis of time-varying electricity price policy...
