Location of trash racks on underground pressure conduits of hydroelectric stations
Conclusions 1. Unsubmerged tower intakes with their large height are complex in design, especially in seismic regions, and are labor-intensive in their construction and operation. 2. Submerged tower intakes are less labor-intensive and are sufficiently reliable in the case of a low rubbish content of the reservoir. 3. Bank intakes with their large depths are insufficiently reliable owing to the impossibility of using known trash-cleaning devices, and also due to the fact that the rubbish striking the inclined rack cannot slide down or be thrown off by the opposite pressure occurring upon a change in the load on the unit. 4. The underground location of trash racks with hydraulic flushing is the most promising in the case of a deep headwater tunnel.
