IntroductionIntroduction A Hydro electric power station is used to supply A Hydro electric power station is used to supply
electrical energy to consumer where water resources electrical energy to consumer where water resources are available.are available.
This type of stations, however, can not be located any This type of stations, however, can not be located any where. Firstly there must be ample quantity of water where. Firstly there must be ample quantity of water available at sufficient head; secondly a suitable site available at sufficient head; secondly a suitable site must be available.must be available.
The energy that can be produced depends upon the The energy that can be produced depends upon the quantity of water available and the rate at which water quantity of water available and the rate at which water is flowingis flowing
Water PowerWater Power
Water is the cheapest source of power . The energy of water Water is the cheapest source of power . The energy of water utilized for hydro-power generation may be kinetic or potential. utilized for hydro-power generation may be kinetic or potential.
Kinetic energy of water is Its energy in motion and is a function Kinetic energy of water is Its energy in motion and is a function of mass and velocity while potential energy is a function of the of mass and velocity while potential energy is a function of the difference in level of water between two points (called the difference in level of water between two points (called the head). head).
In either case continuous availability of water is a basic In either case continuous availability of water is a basic requirement. For this purpose water collected in natural lakes requirement. For this purpose water collected in natural lakes and reservoirs at high altitudes may be made use of or water and reservoirs at high altitudes may be made use of or water may be artificially stored by constructing dams across flowing may be artificially stored by constructing dams across flowing streamsstreams

1.1. Storage Reservoir:Storage Reservoir:
It is basic requirement of It is basic requirement of hydro power plant.Its purpose is to store hydro power plant.Its purpose is to store water during excess flow water during excess flow
Dam:Dam:
The function of dam is to rise water The function of dam is to rise water surface of the stream to create an artificial surface of the stream to create an artificial head.head.
Forebay:Forebay:
The forebay serves as a The forebay serves as a regulating reservoir storing water regulating reservoir storing water temprarily during lighting load petemprarily during lighting load pe
Spillway:Spillway:
This is constructed to act as This is constructed to act as safety valve.safety valve.
Surge Tank:Surge Tank:
Surge tank work as small Surge tank work as small storage reservoir or tank for receiving the storage reservoir or tank for receiving the rejected flow and relieving the condit pipe rejected flow and relieving the condit pipe of excessive water hammer pressure.of excessive water hammer pressure.
Penstock:Penstock:
It is a closed conduit which connects It is a closed conduit which connects the forebay or surg tank to the scroll case of the forebay or surg tank to the scroll case of turbine.turbine.
Tail Race:Tail Race:

Classification Of Hydro Power Classification Of Hydro Power Plants According To Water HeadPlants According To Water Head
Low Head Power PlantsLow Head Power Plants
Medium Head Power PlantsMedium Head Power Plants
High Head Power PlantsHigh Head Power Plants
Low head Power Plants:Low head Power Plants:
Less than 15 meterUses vertical shaft Francis turbines or Kaplan turbines
Medium Head Power Plants:Medium Head Power Plants:
From 15 to 50 metersUses francis turbineForebey provided at the beginning of pen stock serves as the water reserviour. The forebay draws water from main reserviour through a canal or tunnel.
High Head Power Plants:High Head Power Plants:
Above 50 meters Surge tank is attached to penstock to reduce the water
hammer effect on the pen stock Pelton turbines are used in such power plants

2)2) Francis Turbine:Francis Turbine:
3)3) Kaplan Turbine:Kaplan Turbine:
Pelton Wheel Turbine:Pelton Wheel Turbine:
Also called a Also called a free-jet turbinefree-jet turbine . . Pelton turbines are suited to high head, low flow Pelton turbines are suited to high head, low flow applications. Typically, to work this type of applications. Typically, to work this type of turbine, water is piped down a hillside so that at turbine, water is piped down a hillside so that at the lower end of the pipe it emerges from a the lower end of the pipe it emerges from a narrow nozzle as a jet with very high velocity. narrow nozzle as a jet with very high velocity. The Pelton turbine can be controlled by The Pelton turbine can be controlled by adjusting the flow of water to the buckets .adjusting the flow of water to the buckets .
Francis Turbine:Francis Turbine:
A type of hydropower reaction A type of hydropower reaction turbine that contains a runner that has water turbine that contains a runner that has water passages through it formed by curved vanes or passages through it formed by curved vanes or blades. The runner blades, typically 9 to 19 in blades. The runner blades, typically 9 to 19 in number, cannot be adjusted. As the water number, cannot be adjusted. As the water passes through the runner and over the curved passes through the runner and over the curved surfaces, it causes rotation of the runner. The surfaces, it causes rotation of the runner. The rotational motion is transmitted by a shaft to a rotational motion is transmitted by a shaft to a generator generator
Kaplan Turbine:Kaplan Turbine:
Kaplan turbines are well suited Kaplan turbines are well suited to situations in which there is a low head and a to situations in which there is a low head and a large amount of discharge. The adjustable large amount of discharge. The adjustable runner blades enable high efficiency even in the runner blades enable high efficiency even in the range of partial load, and there is little drop in range of partial load, and there is little drop in efficiency due to head variation or load. efficiency due to head variation or load.
