Proportioning of Units in Low-Head Plants
In a paper delivered before the American Society of Civil Engineers on October 4, 1922, the writer indicated certain tendencies in water power development, the more important of which were developments in storage and interconnection and a tendency toward increase in the size of units. Increased interconnection has accomplished two important results: First, by broadening the market, it has made it possible to consider the distribution in the general market of the output of the large continuous powers of boundary streams; and, second, it has permitted the selective development for peak purposes of plants on interior streams, by removing the need for flexibility in any individual plant.
