- Description:
- 'A New Methodology for Selection of Hydraulic Turbines'' was prepared from the results of dissertation research completed by the author in 1986 at the University of Idaho, at Moscow, Idaho, U.S.A. This monograph utilizing information from the earlier study, presents an overview of the key steps in planning and feasibility studies for hydropower projects and emphasizes a new methodology using experience curves for selection of hydraulic turbines. Information is provided for selection of conventional, low-head and small-scale versions of the conventional turbines. These turbine types are the most commonly selected units for installation in hydropower developments all over the world. An example problem is presented to demonstrate the use of the methodology and experience curves. This monograph was financed and prepared under the auspices of the Idaho Water Resources Research Institute, however the contents do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of the Institute.
