Performance tests and evaluation of hydropower plant with double rotating hydropower screw system

Performance tests and evaluation of hydropower plant with double rotating hydropower screw system

The newly developed Archimedean double screw hydropower concept combines hydroelectric power generation and bi-directional fish passage in a single device. Efficiency tests were conducted at the first commercial facility to verify the design data. The downstream migration possibilities have previous...
