Computer Assisted Preliminary Design of R Plants
Computer Assisted Preliminary Design of R Plants
Run-of-river type hydroelectric power plants generate electrical energy by using aportion of the available flow in the river. A computer program called MINI- developed to perform the hydraulic design of run-of-river plants. This program, whi under the Windows operating system, is developed in C# programming language. HPD is capable of performing hydraulic design of structural components of diversi with lateral intake and overflow spillway, canal, forebay, and penstock. In addition determine the optimum design discharge, optimum installed capacity, and o penstock diameter for this type of plants. It is desired to have quick successive run various scenarios and combinations of relevant parameters. An application is prese illustrate the use of the program.
