| - | **Hydroelectricity** **in** **the** **history** **and** **in** **the** |
| - | **world** |
| - | |
| - | The use of hydraulic turbines began a long time before hydroelectricity: |
| - | the first watermills appeared in the 1st century, between Greece and |
| - | Turkey, before reaching the Roman and ChineseEmpires in the 3rd century. |
| - | Ahydraulic turbine is a rotating machine that produces mechanical energy |
| - | from moving water, in lakes, rivers or with the tide. So it is a machine |
| - | that converts kinetic energy and potential energy of water into |
| - | mechanical work. It is the essential component of hydroelectric power |
| - | stations intended to produce electricity from a flow of water. |
| - | Subsequently, its use was adapted to directly drive machines in |
| - | factories until they were practically used only to drive electric |
| - | generators. |
| - | |
| - | Hydroelectric energy is one of the oldest sources of electricity |
| - | production, and therefore is very technologically developed. It is today |
| - | by farthe leadingrenewable electrical energy, producing nearly |
| - | 83%ofrenewable electricity and 16% of global energy in the world. |
| - | Hydroelectricity is not the “out of date” science that we imagine. |
| - | Today, hydraulic machines are high-tech objects that must meet |
| - | increasingly stringent performance constraints. \[1\] |

| - | **Constitution** **and** **Operating** **Principles** |
| - | |
| - | The water present in a tank located at a higher level (with more energy) |
| - | is circulated to a lower level (with less energy) passing through a set |
| - | of curved blades, nozzles or injectors that transform this energy from |
| - | the water into movement of a rotor,removingenergyand speed from the |
| - | water. These blades can be staticor fixed on therotor, both being |
| - | adjustable so that the flowand power generated can be controlled, |
| - | according to the rotation speed. For its part, the rotoris supported |
| - | axially by thrust and counter thrust bearings and radially by guide |
| - | bearings. |
| - | |
| - | The pipe normally has a final diameter greater than the initial one, in |
| - | order to promote the exit of water with a lower velocity \[2\]. |
| - | |
| - | To better understand how a turbine works, consider a Francis turbine, |
| - | illustrated in this video: |
| - | |
| - | [<u>video</u>](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0F-9HciA-A) |
| - | |
| - | **Types** **of** **turbines** |
| - | |
| - | Different types of turbines are developed to extract mechanical energy |
| - | from hydraulic energy to generate electricity. They are severalwaysto |
| - | classify turbines, but a common way isto classify with the mode ofenergy |
| - | exchange between the water and the turbines. \[1\] |
| - | |
| - | *Impulse* *Turbines* |
| - | |
| - | If the turbine wheel is driven by the kinetic energy of the fluid that |
| - | strikes the turbine blades through the nozzle or otherwise, the turbine |
| - | is known as an impulse turbine. |
| - | |
| - | > These types of turbines are usually suitable for high head and low |
| - | > flow rates. |
| - | |
| - | *Reaction* *Turbines* |
| - | |
| - | If the sum of potential and kinetic energy of water which are due to the |
| - | pressure and velocity, respectively cause the turbine blades to rotate, |
| - | the turbine is classified as a reaction turbine. In these types of |
| - | turbines, all the turbine is immersed in water and changes in water |
| - | pressure with the kinetic energy of the water cause power exchange. |
| - | |
| - | > Those turbines are usually at lower heads and higher flow rates than |
| - | > impulse turbines. |

| - | **Choice** **of** **Turbine** **Type** |
| - | |
| - | Each type of turbine has its advantages depending on the operating |
| - | conditions, and the main objective is always to use the equipment that |
| - | presents the best efficiency for the place where it is installed. |
| - | Furthermore, the choice of turbine type is also influenced by the |
| - | turbine speed, that is, by the number of revolutions per minute of the |
| - | generator driven by theturbine.It isalso worthnotingthat theturbines can |
| - | be mountedin different positions,with theaxisvertical, horizontal or |
| - | even inclined to the vertical in order to satisfy the requirements of |
| - | generated power, water level and space limitations. |

| - | |
| - | The specific speed of a turbine is given by the manufacturers, and |
| - | refers to the point of maximum efficiency, it is the best parameter to |
| - | choose a turbine when conditions of flow and head are established. This |
| - | allows accurate calculations of turbine performance for a range of head |
| - | and flow rates. It can be defined as the speed of an ideal similar |
| - | turbine that would produce one unit of power for one unit of head. |

| - | |
| - | The efficiency of a turbine is given by the ratio between the mechanical |
| - | power provided by the turbine and the existing power in the fluid, |
| - | provided by the hydraulic energy, depending on several variables: |
| - | |
| - | > • Flow |
| - | > |
| - | > • Existing losses • Turbine power • Manufacturer • Mounting shaft • |
| - | > Among others |
| - | |
| - | However, hydraulic and mechanical losses are the main causes for the low |
| - | efficiencies in these equipment, and the efficiency of each equipment |
| - | must be maximized according to the conditions in which it will operate |
| - | (flow and losses). The typical efficiencies at which a turbine operates |
| - | vary between 80% and 95%, depending on the flow rate as you can see on |
| - | graphs identical to the one shown in Figure 2 \[3\]. |
| - | |
| - | **Advantages** **of** **Using** **Hydraulic** **Energy** |
| - | |
| - | > • Hydraulic energy, a renewable energy source, is a “clean” energy, |
| - | > because it does not pollute the air and water like power plants that |
| - | > use fossil fuels as a source of energy; |
| - | > |
| - | > • Hydraulic energy is available when it is needed, and engineers can |
| - | > control water flows through turbines to produce electricity; |
| - | > |
| - | > • Hydraulic power stations create large reservoirs (dams) that |
| - | > contribute to the supply of water for public access and flood control; |
| - | > |
| - | > • Energy production involves low costs; |
| - | > |
| - | > • They work for decades with little maintenance, not requiring much |
| - | > investment to be maintained \[4\]. |
| - | |
| - | **Disadvantages** **of** **Using** **Hydraulic** **Energy** |
| - | |
| - | > • Hydraulic power stations can be affected in times of drought and |
| - | > cannot produce electricity. |
| - | > |
| - | > • The new hydraulic power stations impact the local environment, |
| - | > destroying ecosystems. |
| - | > |
| - | > • Fish populations can be affected, as they can no longer migrate |
| - | > upstream to spawn, or downstream to go to the ocean \[4\]. |
| - | |
| - | **Tidal** **Turbines** |
| - | |
| - | From the end of the 19th century, some scientists had the idea of using |
| - | the mechanical energy of ocean currents, but it is only since the |
| - | beginning of the 21st century that this source of energy has begun to be |
| - | studied more seriously: And tidal turbines were born. |
| - | |
| - | > 5 |
| - | |
| - | IIP Homework n°1 |
| - | |
| - | Tidal energy is often compared to wind energy because of its appearance |
| - | and mode of operation: Concretely, a tidal turbine is composed with a |
| - | rotor, this is the rotating part, with a propeller made up of blades, |
| - | with a diameter between 10 and 20 m, all mounted on a shaft/stator, the |
| - | fixed part. \[5\] |
| - | |
| - | The installation of a tidal turbine can be carried out: |
| - | |
| - | > • On a mast or on a tripod which allows the tidal turbine to be placed |
| - | > on the seabed. |
| - | > |
| - | > • If the tidal turbine is placed facing an average sea current of 2.5 |
| - | > m/s, i.e. 5 knots, because the tidal turbine operates at full power |
| - | > from 4 knots. |
| - | > |
| - | > • If the tidal turbine has a current interception surface of around |
| - | > 300 meters. |
| - | |
| - | The operation of a tidal turbine can be broken down as follows: |
| - | |
| - | > 1\. The sea current causes the rotation of the blades of the |
| - | > propeller, drives a turbine which generates a mechanical movement. The |
| - | > turbine in both directions of the sea current. |
| - | > |
| - | > 2\. The rotation of the turbine drives an alternator, which will |
| - | > convert mechanical energy into electricity. 3. This electricity in the |
| - | > form of alternating current is then transported by cables to the |
| - | > surface. |
| - | > |
| - | > 4\. The current is then transformed by a converter to be sent to the |
| - | > electrical network. |

| - | **Au** **Portugal** |
| - | |
| - | In 2019, Portugal had 7,193 MW of hydroelectric power plants, i.e. 2.9% |
| - | of European hydroelectric installed capacity and 0.5% of the world |
| - | total, 19.1% of the country's total electricity production. Its |
| - | production reached 10.6 TWh, or 1.6% of the European total, far behind |
| - | Norway (125.8 TWh), France (63.6 TWh) or Spain (26.4 TWh). |
