Lecture
This lecture covers the design and purpose of infrastructure and hydroelectric batteries, focusing on the sizing criteria for 'flood' load cases in Switzerland. It discusses the importance of hydraulic modeling of evacuation systems, types of evacuators, shock waves, and preventive measures against accidents. The instructor presents case studies and examples of particular aspects related to forced ventilation, shock waves, and cavitation damage phenomena. The lecture emphasizes the need for computational modeling to optimize hydraulic forms and ensure the safety of hydraulic constructions.
