Icon of program: HYDROPOWER Toolbox. ## HYDROPOWER Toolbox: A Comprehensive Solution for Small Hydropower Projects. HYDROPOWER Toolbox is a versatile and user-friendly application designed specifically for small hydropower projects. Available in French, English, and Spanish, this app serves as a comprehensive toolbox that empowers users to size their projects, calculate power and production, select the appropriate type and number of turbines, estimate turnover and costs, and more. With HYDROPOWER Toolbox, users can easily access a wide range of features and tools to streamline their project planning and decision-making processes. The app allows users to export illustrated sheets for documentation and presentation purposes, consult a directory of professionals in the field, and even publish and browse classified ads related to hydropower projects. In this section, you’ll find a clear and simple overview of the types of permissions the app uses, grouped by their level of sensitivity, along with a visual breakdown to help you understand them at a glance.

4 Guide on How to Develop a Small Hydropower Plant ESHA 2004 Figure 1-3 Low head scheme integrated in the dam 1.3.2 Schemes with the powerhouse at the base of a dam A small hydropower scheme cannot afford a large reservoir to operate the plant when it is most convenient, the cost of a relatively large dam and its hydraulic appurtenances would be too high to make it economically viable. 5 Guide on How to Develop a Small Hydropower Plant ESHA 2004 Figure 1-4 Low head scheme using an existing dam Provided the dam is not too high, a siphon intake can be installed.

As explained in Chapter 2, the pressure wave speed c (m/s) depends on the elasticity of the water and pipe material according to the formula: 142 Guide on How to Develop a Small Hydro Site ESHA 2004 ρ ⎟ ⎠ ⎞ ⎜ ⎝ ⎛+ = − Et kD k c 1 10 3 (5.22) where k = bulk modulus of water 2.1x109 N/m2 E = modulus of elasticity of pipe material (N/m2) t = wall thickness (mm) The time taken for the pressure wave to reach the valve on its return, after sudden closure is known as the critical time: T= 2L/c (5.23) For instantaneous closure (the pressure wave reaches the valve after its closure) the increase in pressure, in metres of water column, due to the pressure wave is: g c P v Δ = (5.24) where is the velocity change.

1-800-346-9140 • www.attra.ncat.org A project of the National Center for Appropriate Technology By Leif Kindberg NCAT Energy Specialist Published February 2011 © NCAT IP383 Contents Micro-Hydro Power: A Beginners Guide to Design and Installation Introduction ......................1 Determining the Hydro Potential of Your Site .........................2 Environmental Impact .................................9 Regulatory Issues ..........11 Equipment ...................... Micro-hydro systems generally consist of the following components: • A trash rack, weir, and forebay to pre-vent debris from entering the pipeline and turbine • A pipeline (also called a penstock) to pipe water to the turbine • A powerhouse that contains the turbine and electronics • A water turbine that converts the kinetic energy of the fl owing water into mechanical energy that can be used directly or to drive a generator or other piece of equipment—this is the main component of a micro-hydro system • A tailrace to release the water back into the source it came from • Transmission lines to deliver electrical power where it is needed Th is publication is intended to include as much information as necessary to get you started in the process and to assist you generally at each step along the way of a micro-hydro project.
