HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER PLANT

Prepared by.
Mr. Kamil bin Sahidin
CLOs
Upon completion of this course, all of you should be able
to:
• CLO 2: Generalize specifically the concept of power
generation including steam power plant, gas turbine
power plant, diesel power plant, hydro power plant,
nuclear power plant, process cycle and terms used in
power plant engineering.

• CLO 3: Identify the applications, main components,


related equipments, various arrangements, plant
auxiliaries, classifications and comparison between
various types of power plant.
Define Hydroelectric p.p

• Hydropower or
hydroelectric power is
power that is derived from
the force of energy of
moving water.
Classify of Hydro p.p

Arability of head

Nature of load

Quantity of water Available


Arability of head
• To generate a requisite quantity of power it is
necessary that a large quantity of water at a
sufficient head should be available.
Nature of Load
• It is paramount importance that the power
plant should be set up near the load center;
this will reduce the cost of erection &
maintenance of transmission line.
Quantity of water available
• This is the important aspect
• To decide the capacity of the hydro electric
plant
• Setting up of peak load plant steam, diesel or
gt.
• To provide adequate spillways or gate relief
during the flood period
