The questions and load cases dealt with include the start-up of the plant from a standstill to full load operation, the guide vane emergency shutdown of both turbines, the simultaneous load rejection of both turbines, the periodic operation of the plant in response to the surge chamber oscillations and the restart of the plant to full load after an emergency shutdown or a load rejection.Īs this power plant project is still in its planning stage, additionally to the above-mentioned charges the maximum internal pressures within the pipes to be expected are of importance in order to be able to correctly dimension these pipes and /or their wall thickness. Thus, certain phenomena and parameters such as the rotational speed of the machine at load rejection or a possible separation of free water levels in the surge chamber can be depicted.

For the relevant power plant components specially programmed software modules were used in order to allow for in illustration of the plant scheme as detailed as possible.

With the help of instationary, one-dimensional numerical calculations the transient behaviour of the power plant’s hydraulics should be investigated whereas mass oscillations as well as the maximum water hammer are of interest.
