  • Penstocks and surge control
  • Size of the penstock, pressure forces, anchoring
    the penstock, water hammer and its control
  • Exit arrangements
  • draft tubes
  • Turbine selection
  • Force triangles, Turbine types, specific speed,
    cavitation and its prevention
  • Electronics and control
  • Types of generator, Turbine control, transmission

B2.2.3 Hydropower system design Draft tubes
Parallel sided
Tapered
  • Allows turbine to be set above water level but
    uses vacuum pressure on underside to increase
    effective head
  • Recovers part of the velocity head by diffusion
    action

Limited by the vapour pressure of water

B2.2.3 Hydropower system design Draft tubes
Exercise
  • Using Bernoulli's equation and mass continuity,
    show how a tapered turbine regains velocity head
    and converts it to pressure reduction at the
    turbine
