Calculated Relationship Between Flow Rates and Water Levels in the Downstream Pools of Hydroelectric Power Plants as a Result of River-Bed Transformation

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

The construction of correlation curves between flows and water levels Q = f(H), varying in the downstream pool sections as a result of river-bed transformation over the operating period of hydroelectric complexes, is limited to the observed flow rate values. The calculation of the Q = f(H) correlation curves, covering the entire range of possible water flow variations, is based on solving a problem of constructing a free water surface curve using a one-dimensional mathematical model of the river flow, which accounts for the morphometry of a transformed bed of the downstream pool.
