Hydraulic calculation of irrigation settling tanks of Amu Darya irrigation systems [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2021
The Amu Darya river carries a large amount of up to 15 kg/m3 of suspended matter containing up to 85-90% suspended and 10-15% bottom sediments, which pose a serious threat to the hydroelectric power station and irrigation systems operating in its basin ...

Numerical design and optimization of a hydraulic micro-turbine adapted to a wastewater treatment plant

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2023
Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) are considered as an Ultra Low Head (ULH) hydraulic resource. This has provoked an inadequate extraction of its potential energy by Micro Hydroelectric Plants (MHP) due to the improper relationship between the size and

Method of calculation of water-diverting structures of low-head hydroelectric power plant for power supply of small power consumers

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2022
Abstract In recent years and in many countries the economic development of distant regions is increasingly dependent on energy resources. This fact makes the world scientific community pay more attention to the renewable energy sources. Special attention is paid to the solar, wind and small hydropower for electrical consumers who have no

Assessment of the Resistance Value of Trash Racks at a Small Hydropower Plant Operating at Low Temperature

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Trash racks are the first element mounted in inlet channels of hydraulic structures. Their primary task is to capture coarse pollutants flowing in the riverbed/river channel and protect water facilities downstream.

Woodruff Narrows low head hydroelectric power plant feasibility determination [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
Woodruff Narrows Reservoir, owned by the State of Utah, was built in 1961 as an irrigation reservoir. The reservoir outlet works and spillway are in need of repair, and plans have been made to enlarge the reservoir from its present capacity of 28,000 acre-feet to 53,200 acre-feet when these repairs are made.
