Identifying the Effects on Fish of Changes in Water Pressure during Turbine Passage
- Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), Richland, WA (United States)
This article discusses experiments conducted by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory to determine how water pressure and dissolved gas levels associated with hydroelectric facilities may affect the survival of fish. The results of the experiments are discussed as well as how these results can be applied to turbine designs and plant operation.
