B 2. 2. 5 Hydropower system design Electronics and control: Complexity? “We urge engineers who are specifying hydroelectric plant and particularly governors to beware of buying equipment which cannot reasonably be maintained by the staff available in the power stations in which they will be installed. A governor is a good servant but can be a bad master. A governor which operates with a number of sensitive relays and fine orifices may work beautifully in the temperate climate of south Germany where a skilled instrument engineer can be sent for at 2 a. m. to check a defective relay, but if the same governor is controlling a turbine in tropical Africa, the leg of a dead locust can play hell with a fine orifice or high humidity cause a breakdown in a relay which has ". . . been tested for many months in the manufacturer's research laboratory" under the eagle eye of young engineers in spotless white coats who know exactly what to do if anything goes wrong. We can only utter a warning: "It may look beautiful in colour in the manufacturer's catalogue, but can it be guaranteed to work beautifully in this particular power station? ” 14

B 2. 2 Hydropower system design Summary • Inlet arrangements are the “last defence” for the turbine and should protect it against large flows and foreign material • Trashracks, entrances, bends, valves and contractions result in losses to the net head which can be calculated • Penstocks and penstock mountings are subject to forces such as expansion, bend forces and water hammer • Draft tubes provide a way of recovering velocity head but are limited by the vapour pressure of water and the turbine Thoma number • Turbines convert pressure head to mechanical power, this can be calculated using velocity triangles 47
B 2. 2 Hydropower system design Summary (cont’d) • A number of different turbines exist such as Pelton wheels, turgo and crossflow turbines (impulse turbines) and Francis, propeller and Kaplan turbines (reaction turbines). A number of turbine types are made in developing countries • Specific speed can be used as a simple specification for turbine selection – but beware dimensionality. • Governing of turbines can be critical. It can be archived in several “conventional” ways such as mechanical governors and load control. “Unconventional” methods such as employing a large base load, operating at the back of the load curve or flow control can save complexity 48
B 2. 2 Hydropower system design Summary (cont’d) • Electrical generation converts mechanical power to electrical power • AC or DC power can be used – each has trade offs. AC power can be single or three phase • AC generators can be synchronous or induction. Induction generators need capacitors across their phases and a low reactive load to effectively self excite • Pumps can also be used as turbines but with some trade-offs 49
