Hydrology for Hydropower Design

Hydropower systems comprehend the structure and equipment that convert the falling water force to electricity energy. This course focuses on understanding the hydrological analyses required for hydropower design and technical and environmental challenges that will be encountered during design phases. The learners be exposed to better understanding on of the

purpose, processes and methods, and issues in hydrological analyses for

hydropower scheme design.

Programme Objective

By the end of the programme, the learner will be able to:

• Understand hydropower schemes

• Understand energy modelling

• Understand dam safety

• Estimate flood frequency

• Design floods for spillway sizing

• Understand climate change factor and soil sedimentation
