Assessment of hydropower potential in wastewater systems and application to Switzerland
Anton Schleiss, Luca Rossi, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Philippe Heller, Irene Almeida Samora
Energy recovery through local hydropower generation is a way of coping with high electricity expenditures in wastewater systems (WWS). Installing small hydropower plants within WWS is already in some countries eligible for incentive policy mechanisms to re ...
Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd2017Hydropower Design under Uncertainties
The design of hydropower is determined by estimates and long-term forecasts. These forecasts and estimates are highly uncertain and make performance evaluation and design choices challenging. Performance evaluation of hydropower projects is affected by a n ...
EPFL2017Development of an integrated model for the design of fish-passes for small and medium head differences
Problematic: Which type of fish passes (FPs) are appropriate for small hydropower plants (HPPS) in Greece, based on their local characteristics (and thus, using the experience of the German experience)? Elaborate a decision making tool. Investigate dimensi ...
2017Dynamic water allocation policies improve the global efficiency of storage systems
Water impoundment by dams strongly affects the river natural flow regime, its attributes and the related ecosystem biodiversity. Fostering the sustainability of water uses e.g., hydropower systems thus implies searching for innovative operational policies ...
Elsevier2017Assessment of Power Swings in Hydropower Plants Through High-Order Modeling and Eigenanalysis
Christophe Nicolet, Basile Kawkabani, Pedro Camilo de Oliveira e Silva
POWER plants are subject to introduce disturbances in the power grid, resulting from interactions with the dynamical behavior of the energy source subsystem. In the case of hydropower plants when used to compensate for variations of power generation and co ...
2017Hydropower design under uncertainties
Hydropower plants are still the most important renewable energy resource worldwide. Hydropower is also the most efficient electricity production and has a very high flexibility in combination with reservoirs. Nevertheless, the construction of hydropower pl ...
EPFL-LCH2017Part Load Vortex Rope as a Global Unstable Mode
François Avellan, François Gallaire, Simon Pasche
Renewable energy sources (RES) have reached 23.7% of the worldwide electrical generation production in 2015. The hydraulic energy contribution amounts to 16.6% and comes mainly form large-scale hydropower plants, where Francis turbines represents 60% of th ...
American Society of Mechanical Engineers2017Zambezi River Basin
Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos
With a basin covering 1.4 million km2, the Zambezi is the fifth largest drainage basin in Africa. Bounded by the 9°S and 21°S parallels, it is home to approximately 30 million people and is officially shared by eight riparian countries. The river stretches ...
