AN ANALYSIS OF PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS FOR SMALL HYDRO POWER PLANTS

  • 발행 : 2001.01.01

초록

A performance prediction model for Small Hydro Power(SHP) sites has been studied and developed. Twelve SHP sites were selected and the performance characteristics were analyzed by using the developed model. Also, primary design specifications such as design flowrate, plant capacity, operational rate were suggested and feasibility for small hydro power sites were estimated. It was found that the design flowrate is most important parameter to exploit SHP plant and the methodology developed in this study can be a useful tool to analyze the performance of SHP sites.
