  • This paper summarized deformation properties of hydroelectric power concrete dam through the comparison between measured and analysed data. This is a part of the process to evaluate concrete dam safety, which has become a critical concern in the country. We analysed strain and angle deformation data by considering only the effect of atmosphere temperature to evaluate deformation properties of Gaisan hydroelectric power concrete dam. Analysis results are almost identical with measured data, and behavior of Gusian dam can be cleared up more reliably in case of acting the external loads (seismic, wind water pressure, etc.) except the influence of temperature.

  • We studied forest structure and composition in the vicinity of Srinagar Hydroelectric Power Project in Alaknanda Valley, Garhwal Himalaya, India to provide baseline data for the management of forests. Eight sites were selected in the vicinity of power project based on elevation and species composition. Density varied from 650 to 340 ind ha-1 for trees and from 4,360 to 6,480 ind ha-1 for shrubs. TBC ranged from 35.02 to 54.02 ㎡ ha-1 for trees and from 0.875 to 2.628 ㎡ ha-1 for shrubs. On the basis of density and IVI, Pinus roxburghii was found dominant tree species in most of the sites, whereas among the shrubs, Carissa opaca was dominant. Dominance of Pinus roxburghii in most of the sites is an indication towards possible threat to associated species in the area. The dominance-diversity curve of trees showed a geometric distribution, whereas the shrubs displayed log-normal curves. The forest has rich and diverse species composition however; habitat degradation caused by the construction of Power Project might lead to reduction of plant species from the area. The information obtained from this study will be helpful in predicting possible changes in the forest ecosystem properties in near future after completion of the power project.

  • As science advances, the kinds of energy that humanity can use are increasing. Since most of these are energy that pollute the environment, environmental pollution will become increasingly serious if we continue to use this energy. Therefore, in this paper, we want to study how to develop using less polluting hydroelectric power. As a result, we built a hydroelectric generator that was developed using wastewater that was installed in a drainage port. Through this study, it is successful to use this generator in each home or underdeveloped country.

  • The hydroelectric Power plant of the KOWACO have been establishing and operating a full scale electric power facility, doing the largest generation during the flood period of the summer season. When the huge capacity generator is run like the Chung-Ju's hydroelectric Power plant, the generator current per generator flows a great current estimated at 5,900 A. The bus bar of a great current flows in cubicle, owing to the bus bar current Eddy current is created around magnetic substance and a local heating phenomenon occurs due to Joule heat finally. a local heating phenomenon still exists the danger of safety accident due to contact and accompanies losses enough to healing capacity inevitably. this study applies and examines related theory and numerical formula about the heating cause of a great current & enforces technical verification about the method of heating reduction previous managed at the site.

  • Synchronous generators and induction generators are mainly used in hydroelectric power generation. Synchronous generator is mainly applied to large hydroelectric plants but induction generator is applied to the small hydro power plants. Stability of induction generator is slightly less than the synchronous generator. However, induction generator has many advantages rather than a synchronous generator in terms of price and maintenance. So Induction generator is used primarily in small hydroelectric power station less than 1,000kW recently. Squirrel cage induction generator generates a high inrush current at the grid-connection. This high inrush current causes a voltage drop on the grid. In order to reduce the voltage drop and to analyze the power flow, the analysis for operating characteristics of the induction generator should be reviewed in advance. In this study, we analyzed the voltage drop and power flow analysis when a 1500kW induction generator is connected to the grid. The voltage drop is slightly higher than the acceptable range of distributed power supply voltage and the power flow of the generator is performed well.

  • Sustainable growth of hydroelectric power plants is expected in consideration of climate change and energy security. However, hydroelectric power plants always have a risk of water hammer damage, and safety assurance is very important. The water hammer phenomenon commonly occurs during operations such as rapid opening and closing of the valves and pump/turbine shutdown in pipe systems, which is more common in cases of emergency shutdown. In this study, a computational numerical model was developed using the MOC-FDM scheme to reflect the mechanism of water hammer occurrence. The proposed model was implemented in boundary conditions such as reservoir, pipeline, valve, and pump/turbine conditions and then applied to simulate hypothetical case studies. The analysis results of the model were verified using the analysis results at the main points of the pipe systems. The model produced reasonably good performance and was validated by comparison with the results of the SIMSEN package model. The model could be used as an efficient tool for the safety assessment of hydroelectric power plants based on accurate prediction of transient behavior in the operation of hydropower facilities.
