Using Hydraulic Model Tests for Water Intake Structure Redesign of Hydro Power Plant
The paper presents the interlaced concept as well as the main finding of the investigation, which lead to a successful adaptation of the intake structure existing hydropower plant Una Kostela, Bosnia and Herzegovina, built in 1954. After conducting hydraulic model tests on a physical model and analysis performed on mathematical models, many dilemmas were clarified (or removed). This caused the need of a total redesign of the existing water intake. The results obtained by these hydraulic laboratory tests represents a basis for the design and construction of intake structures envisaged for the innovation of this hydropower plant. A mathematical model was applied, an experimental hydraulic tests in the laboratory done, with calibration and verification of this model. Namely, with these hydraulic tests on a physical model in the laboratory, it was necessary to test and confirm the designed technical solutions from the preliminary design. The construction of new hydropower plants is under great scrutiny and opposition from green NGOs for environmental protection. Reconstruction and expansion of existing hydropower plants is a solution for increasing electricity generation from renewable energy sources. One possibility is the reconstruction and upgrade of existing hydropower plant Una Kostela, Bosnia and Herzegovina, built in 1954.
