Descriptions
Introduction to hydroelectric power plant design. People have harnessed the power of water for thousands of years. The potential energy of water was used to drive mills, pumps and for many other purposes. However, converting the potential and kinetic energy of water into electrical energy is a relatively new concept. Modern hydroelectric power plants represent the pinnacle of hydropower, but how do they work? How effective are they? Are they really “green”? In this course we will answer all these questions and many more. The course is designed to help you become a hydropower engineering knowledge hero from scratch. Even if you already have some basic knowledge of power plants, this course will serve as an effective refresher. Regardless of your level of understanding or engineering background (electrical engineering, automotive engineering, power engineering, oil and gas engineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, etc.), we guarantee that you have never taken such an engineering course (unless you have taken one of our other courses!).
