Performance Analysis for Small Hydro Power at Existing Water Treatment Facilities

물관련 설비를 이용한 소수력발전 성능분석

A methodology to evaluate the performance analysis for small hydropower at existing water treatment facilities has been studied. It consists of two main parts; flow duration function which can describe existing water treatment facilities and performance analysis to estimate the output characteristics of small hydro power plants. The output performance characteristics for Mi-ho reservoir, Sum-kang low dam, Sun-cheon sewage treatment plant and Nam-dong purification plant were analyzed, using developed model. According to the simulation results, the predicted data show that the data were in good agreement with measured results. Also, it was found that the developed model in this study can be used to analyze the output characteristics for small hydro power at existing water treatment facilities.
