1 Hydroelectric power Yul van der Stap

2 What is…  Hydroelectric power  power generated through the energy of flowing water

3 History

4  Fox river in Appelton, Wisconsin

5 History

6 Dam

7 Energy transformation

8 Formula  PE=pghV  P=ηρghQ  For 1m^3/sec from head of 1m, P=9 kW, if η 90%

9 Advantages & disadvantages Dam  +  Constant rate of electricity production  Long durability  Lake can be used as  irrigation purpose  Leisure area  -  High cost of construction  Destruction of environment  Alter of natural water table level.

10 Run of river

11 Energy transformation

12 Formula  Pmax =½ηρQv 2  Q=Av  Pmax =1/2ηρAv 3  if 1m 3 of water flows 1ms -1 with 100% efficiency, P=0.5kW

13 Advantages & disadvantages Run of River  +  Avoids the need to build large dams to store water  projects will operate anywhere between 65% to 90% of the time in any given year  Low potential risk of water quality  Has minimal impact on environment  -  Low production rate  Low availability

14 Tidal flows

15 Transformation  KE (water)  KE (turbine)  Electricity (generator)

16 Formula  Pmax =1/2ηρAv 3  if 1m 3 of water flows 1ms -1 with 100% efficiency, P=0.4kW

17 Advantages & disadvantages tidal flow  +  Can harness until sun and moon exist  Efficiency of 80%  Predictability  Protection of coastal area  -  High construction cost  Effective only 10hrs /day  Environmental damage
