Efficiency of Diversion Tunnel No. 3 of the Rogun HPP: Operating Experience

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

Diversion tunnel No. 3 (DT-3) of the Rogun HPP is a unique structure to which there is nothing comparable in the world. The design features and operating principle of the spillway are described. The experience of operation of DT-3 at the initial stage of construction of the hydraulic project is analyzed.
