Fish Passage Assessment of an Advanced Hydropower Turbine and Conventional Turbine Using Blade-strike Modeling

Journal Article Deng, Zhiqun; Carlson, Thomas; Dauble, Dennis; ... - Energies, 4(1):57-67

In the Columbia and Snake River basins, several species of Pacific salmon were listed under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 due to significant declines of fish population. Dam operators and design engineers are thus faced with the task of making those hydroelectric facilities more ecologically friendly through changes in hydro-turbine design and operation. Public Utility District No. 2 of Grant County, Washington, applied for re-licensing from the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to replace the 10 turbines at Wanapum Dam with advanced hydropower turbines that were designed to increase power generation and improve fish passage conditions. We applied bothmore »« less

Environmental Issues Related to Conventional Hydropower

Book Deng, Zhiqun; Colotelo, Alison; Brown, Richard; ...

Hydropower is the largest renewable electrical energy source in the world and has a total global capacity of approximately 1,010 GW from 150 countries. Although hydropower has many environmental advantages, hydropower dams have potential adverse ecological impacts such as fish passage, water quality, and habitat alterations.

A dataset of eco-evidence tools to inform early-stage environmental impact assessments of hydropower development

Journal Article McManamay, Ryan; Parish, Esther; DeRolph, Christopher - Data in Brief

The datasets described herein provide the foundation for a decision support prototype (DSP) toolkit aimed at assisting stakeholders in determining evidence of which aspects of river ecosystems have been impacted by hydropower. The DSP toolkit and its application are presented and described in the article “Evidence-based indicator approach to guide preliminary environmental impact assessments of hydropower development” [1]. Development of the DSP and the output for decision support centralize around 42 river function indicators describing the dimensionality of river ecosystems through six main categories: biota and biodiversity, water quality, hydrology, geomorphology, land cover, and river connectivity. Three main tools aremore »« less

Fiscal year 1986 Department of Energy Authorization (uranium enrichment and electric energy systems, energy storage and small-scale hydropower programs). Volume VI. Hearings before the Subcommittee on Energy Research and Production of the Committee on Science and Technology, US House of Representatives, Ninety-Ninth Congress, First Session, February 28; March 5, 7, 1985

Book

Volume VI of the hearing record covers three days of testimony on the future of US uranium enrichment and on programs involving electric power and energy storage. There were four areas of concern about uranium enrichment: the choice between atomic vapor laser isotope separation (AVLIS) and the advanced gas centrifuge (AGC) technologies, cost-effective operation of gaseous diffusion plants, plans for a gas centrifuge enrichment plant, and how the DOE will make its decision. The witnesses represented major government contractors, research laboratories, and energy suppliers. The discussion on the third day focused on the impact of reductions in funding for electricmore »« less
Numerical Tools for Improved Convergence of Meshfree Peridynamic Discretizations

Book Seleson, Pablo; Littlewood, David

Peridynamic models have been employed to simulate a broad range of engineering applications concerning material failure and damage, with the majority of these simulations using a meshfree discretization. This chapter reviews that meshfree discretization, related issues present in peridynamic convergence studies, and possible remedies proposed in the literature. In particular, we discuss two numerical tools, partial-volume algorithms and influence functions, to improve the convergence behavior of numerical solutions in peridynamics. Numerical studies in this chapter involve static and dynamic simulations for linear elastic state-based peridynamic problems.
