Mathematical Modelling in the Process Operating the Channel Hydropower Plants
Main Article Content
Abstract
Several channel power plants are established in Slovakia. Most of them are located on river Vah and river Danube. The present-day Vah cascade of hydroelectric power plants was constructed over 60 years. Individual power plants and entire groups of power plants were designed and built with different hydraulic parameters such as sizes of channels, discharges through power plants, etc. Therefore, the hydraulic structures of the Vah cascade are complicated. The power plants of the Vah cascade are utilized to cover variable and unscheduled electric system loads in the Slovak electro-energetic system, such are peaks and power failure reserves. The power plant Gabcikovo on the Danube is the greatest channel power plant in Slovakia. Considering the fact that System of water works Gabcikovo – Nagymaros has not been build up according to the original contract, the power plant Gabcikovo currently works in through flow mode. This paper shows the possibility of application of 1-D hydraulic model in the area of channel power plants controlling on the cascade Vah and casade Danube.
