A presentation on : HYDRO POWER
PLANT
 Name : Amitabh Shukla
 Enrolment no. : 120810111010
 Branch : EC (4th Sem.)
 Subject : Energy Systems
How dose a hydro power plant
works?
 A hydro power plant works on
Hydrologic cycle.
How dose a hydro power plant
works? (cont..)
 A dam is constructed
across a river, so water gets
collected in the dam and
a reservoir is created.
 Extra water flows from the
gates provided on top of
the dam.
 Now the water collected in
reservoir is used to
generate electricity.
 Water from the reservoir
flows through penstocks to
hydraulic turbine
How dose a hydro power plant
works? (cont..)
 During this process its potential energy is converted into kinectic
energy.
 This high velocity jets of water strikes the hydraulic turbine and
kinetic energy is converted into mechanical energy.
 Turbine is connected to a alternator (A.C. generator).
 This alternator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy of
electricity.
 Power generated is transmitted over power lines to many parts of
country.

Types of hydro power plant
 Types of plant means types of dams.
 Some of the types are listed below
 Arch
 Gravity
 Buttress
 Embankment or Earth
Arch dams
 Arch shape gives strength
 Less material (cheaper)
 Narrow sites
 Need strong abutments
Concrete gravity dams
 Weight holds dam in place
 Lots of concrete (expensive)
Buttress dams
 Face is held up by a series of
supports
 Flat or curved face
Embankment dams
 Earth or rock
 Weight resists flow of water
Sizes of power plant
 Definitions may vary.
 Large plants : capacity >30 MW
 Small Plants : capacity b/w 100 kW to 30 MW
 Micro Plants : capacity up to 100 kW
Large scale hydro power plant
Small scale hydro power plant
Micro hydro power plant
Generating technologies
 Types of Hydro Turbines:
 Impulse turbines
 Pelton Wheel
 Cross Flow Turbines
 Reaction turbines
 Propeller Turbines : Bulb turbine, Straflo, Tube Turbine,
Kaplan Turbine
 Francis Turbines
 Kinetic Turbines
Impulse turbine
 Uses the velocity of the water to move the runner and discharges to atmospheric
pressure.
 The water stream hits each bucket on the runner.
 No suction downside, water flows out through turbine housing after hitting.
 High head, low flow applications.
 Types : Pelton wheel, Cross Flow
Palton wheels
 Nozzles direct forceful streams of
water against a series of spoon-
shaped buckets mounted around the
edge of a wheel.
 Each bucket reverses the flow of
water and this impulse spins the
turbine.
Palton wheel (cont..)
 Suited for high head, low flow
sites.
 The largest units can be up to
200 MW.
 Can operate with heads as
small as 15 meters and as high
as 1,800 meters.
Reaction turbines
 Combined action of pressure and moving water.
 Runner placed directly in the water stream flowing over the blades rather than
striking each individually.
 lower head and higher flows than compared with the impulse turbines.
Kaplan turbine
 The inlet is a scroll-shaped tube
that wraps around the turbine's
wicket gate.
 Water is directed tangentially,
through the wicket gate, and
spirals on to a propeller shaped
runner, causing it to spin.
 The outlet is a specially shaped
draft tube that helps decelerate
the water and recover kinetic
energy.
Francis turbine
 The inlet is spiral shaped.
 Guide vanes direct the water
tangentially to the runner.
 This radial flow acts on the
runner vanes, causing the runner
to spin.
 The guide vanes (or wicket
gate) may be adjustable to allow
efficient turbine operation for a
range of water flow conditions.
Francis turbine (cont..)
 Best suited for sites with high
flows and low to medium head.
 Efficiency of 90%.
 expensive to design,
manufacture and install, but
operate for decades

Advantages
 Though its capital cost is comparatively high but its operation cost is
much less. Due to this the cost of power generation per unit is low.
 These plants are more reliable.
 Starting and stopping of these plants takes short time compared to
steam and nuclear power plants.
 These power plants don’t have ash disposal and nuclear waste
disposal problems.
 The life expectancy is higher. Its about 50 years.
 These plants have high efficiency over wide range of loads s
compared to other plants.
Advantages (cont..)
 These plants requires less supervising staff.
 These plants can be used for irrigation, transportation, fisheries and
tourism and flood control purposes in addition to power generation.
Disadvantages
 The total power developed depends on total amount of water
supplied, thus it depends on rainfall.
 These plants are generally located far away from load centres,
hence, it requires long transmission lines. It increases the cost of
transmission lines and increases losses.
 Time required developing these plants is high.
Other problems
 Many fishes require flowing water for reproduction and cannot adapt to stagnant
resulting in the reduction in its population.
 Heating of the reservoirs may lead to decrease in the dissolved oxygen levels.
 The point of confluence of fresh water with salt water is a breeding ground for
several aquatic life forms. The reduction in run-off to the sea results in reduction
in their life forms.
 Other water-borne diseases like malaria, river-blindness become prevalent.
Methods to alleviate the negative
impacts
 Creation of ecological reserves.
 Limiting dam construction to allow substantial free flowing water.
 Building sluice gates and passes that help prevent fishes getting trapped.
Sardar sarovar dam
 Project planning started as early as
1946.
 Project still under construction with a
part of the dam in operation.
 A concrete gravity dam, 1210 meters
(3970 feet) in length and with a
maximum height of 163 meters
Sardar sarovar dam
 The gross storage capacity of the reservoir is 0.95 M. ha.m. (7.7 MAF) while live
storage capacity is 0.58 M.ha.m. (4.75 MAF).
 The total project cost was estimated at Rs. 49 billion at 1987 price levels.
 There are two power houses project- 1200 MW River Bed Power House and 250
MW Canal Head Power House. Power benefits are shared among Madhya
Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat in the ratio of 57:27:16 respectively.
Environmental protection measures
 About 14000 ha of land has been afforested to compensate for the submergence of
4523 ha of land.
 Formation of co-operatives, extensive training to the fisherman, providing
infrastructure such as fish landing sites, cold storage and transportation etc.
 Surveillance & Control of Water related diseases and communicable diseases.
 Extension of Shoolpaneshwar sanctuary to cover an area of 607 sq.km.

Hydro power plant

  • 2. A presentation on : HYDRO POWER PLANT  Name : Amitabh Shukla  Enrolment no. : 120810111010  Branch : EC (4th Sem.)  Subject : Energy Systems
  • 3. How dose a hydro power plant works?  A hydro power plant works on Hydrologic cycle.
  • 4. How dose a hydro power plant works? (cont..)  A dam is constructed across a river, so water gets collected in the dam and a reservoir is created.  Extra water flows from the gates provided on top of the dam.  Now the water collected in reservoir is used to generate electricity.  Water from the reservoir flows through penstocks to hydraulic turbine
  • 5. How dose a hydro power plant works? (cont..)  During this process its potential energy is converted into kinectic energy.  This high velocity jets of water strikes the hydraulic turbine and kinetic energy is converted into mechanical energy.  Turbine is connected to a alternator (A.C. generator).  This alternator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy of electricity.  Power generated is transmitted over power lines to many parts of country.
  • 6. Schematic diagram of hydro power station
  • 7. Types of hydro power plant  Types of plant means types of dams.  Some of the types are listed below  Arch  Gravity  Buttress  Embankment or Earth
  • 8. Arch dams  Arch shape gives strength  Less material (cheaper)  Narrow sites  Need strong abutments
  • 9. Concrete gravity dams  Weight holds dam in place  Lots of concrete (expensive)
  • 10. Buttress dams  Face is held up by a series of supports  Flat or curved face
  • 11. Embankment dams  Earth or rock  Weight resists flow of water
  • 12. Sizes of power plant  Definitions may vary.  Large plants : capacity >30 MW  Small Plants : capacity b/w 100 kW to 30 MW  Micro Plants : capacity up to 100 kW
  • 13. Large scale hydro power plant
  • 14. Small scale hydro power plant
  • 16. Generating technologies  Types of Hydro Turbines:  Impulse turbines  Pelton Wheel  Cross Flow Turbines  Reaction turbines  Propeller Turbines : Bulb turbine, Straflo, Tube Turbine, Kaplan Turbine  Francis Turbines  Kinetic Turbines
  • 17. Impulse turbine  Uses the velocity of the water to move the runner and discharges to atmospheric pressure.  The water stream hits each bucket on the runner.  No suction downside, water flows out through turbine housing after hitting.  High head, low flow applications.  Types : Pelton wheel, Cross Flow
  • 18. Palton wheels  Nozzles direct forceful streams of water against a series of spoon- shaped buckets mounted around the edge of a wheel.  Each bucket reverses the flow of water and this impulse spins the turbine.
  • 19. Palton wheel (cont..)  Suited for high head, low flow sites.  The largest units can be up to 200 MW.  Can operate with heads as small as 15 meters and as high as 1,800 meters.
  • 20. Reaction turbines  Combined action of pressure and moving water.  Runner placed directly in the water stream flowing over the blades rather than striking each individually.  lower head and higher flows than compared with the impulse turbines.
  • 21. Kaplan turbine  The inlet is a scroll-shaped tube that wraps around the turbine's wicket gate.  Water is directed tangentially, through the wicket gate, and spirals on to a propeller shaped runner, causing it to spin.  The outlet is a specially shaped draft tube that helps decelerate the water and recover kinetic energy.
  • 22. Francis turbine  The inlet is spiral shaped.  Guide vanes direct the water tangentially to the runner.  This radial flow acts on the runner vanes, causing the runner to spin.  The guide vanes (or wicket gate) may be adjustable to allow efficient turbine operation for a range of water flow conditions.
  • 23. Francis turbine (cont..)  Best suited for sites with high flows and low to medium head.  Efficiency of 90%.  expensive to design, manufacture and install, but operate for decades
  • 24. Hydro electric power plants in India Baspa II Binwa
  • 25. Hydro electric power plants in India (cont..) Rangit Sardar Sarovar
  • 26. Hydro electric power plants in India (cont..) Gaj Nathpa Jakri
  • 27. Advantages  Though its capital cost is comparatively high but its operation cost is much less. Due to this the cost of power generation per unit is low.  These plants are more reliable.  Starting and stopping of these plants takes short time compared to steam and nuclear power plants.  These power plants don’t have ash disposal and nuclear waste disposal problems.  The life expectancy is higher. Its about 50 years.  These plants have high efficiency over wide range of loads s compared to other plants.
  • 28. Advantages (cont..)  These plants requires less supervising staff.  These plants can be used for irrigation, transportation, fisheries and tourism and flood control purposes in addition to power generation.
  • 29. Disadvantages  The total power developed depends on total amount of water supplied, thus it depends on rainfall.  These plants are generally located far away from load centres, hence, it requires long transmission lines. It increases the cost of transmission lines and increases losses.  Time required developing these plants is high.
  • 30. Other problems  Many fishes require flowing water for reproduction and cannot adapt to stagnant resulting in the reduction in its population.  Heating of the reservoirs may lead to decrease in the dissolved oxygen levels.  The point of confluence of fresh water with salt water is a breeding ground for several aquatic life forms. The reduction in run-off to the sea results in reduction in their life forms.  Other water-borne diseases like malaria, river-blindness become prevalent.
  • 31. Methods to alleviate the negative impacts  Creation of ecological reserves.  Limiting dam construction to allow substantial free flowing water.  Building sluice gates and passes that help prevent fishes getting trapped.
  • 32. Sardar sarovar dam  Project planning started as early as 1946.  Project still under construction with a part of the dam in operation.  A concrete gravity dam, 1210 meters (3970 feet) in length and with a maximum height of 163 meters
  • 33. Sardar sarovar dam  The gross storage capacity of the reservoir is 0.95 M. ha.m. (7.7 MAF) while live storage capacity is 0.58 M.ha.m. (4.75 MAF).  The total project cost was estimated at Rs. 49 billion at 1987 price levels.  There are two power houses project- 1200 MW River Bed Power House and 250 MW Canal Head Power House. Power benefits are shared among Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra and Gujarat in the ratio of 57:27:16 respectively.
  • 34. Environmental protection measures  About 14000 ha of land has been afforested to compensate for the submergence of 4523 ha of land.  Formation of co-operatives, extensive training to the fisherman, providing infrastructure such as fish landing sites, cold storage and transportation etc.  Surveillance & Control of Water related diseases and communicable diseases.  Extension of Shoolpaneshwar sanctuary to cover an area of 607 sq.km.
