| Description/Abstract | The authors examine the characteristics of the Borisoglebsk hydroelectric station, including: the concrete buttress dams, intake of the hydrostation, the headrace free-flow tunnel, the surge chamber, the penstocks, the water passageway, the powerhouse and the tailrace diversion. They further discuss the operating characteristics of the hydraulic structures and their repair. From the study they conclude: the long operating experience of the hydrostation on the whole shows a sufficiently high level of reliability of the hydraulic structures; most operating difficulties are related to rockfalls in the unsupported parts of the underground workings and seepage into the tunnels and rooms; and, the repair and construction works on the hydro development are distinguished by a great diversity--their necessary volume inevitably increases with time in connection with the constant aging of all structures. |
