That's what we did. Subscribe for the next video.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Its access to underground power 🔋

We managed to remove trash from intake trashracks by simply closing the gates.

@@hydropowerwithalinaqvi Thank you for the explanation! Interesting to watch! :^)

@RussellBauwens please share and subscribe for more videos

Also check other videos as we are going to make a mini dam soon.

@awkerper The main inlet valve is a hammer type hydraulic ball valve and is opened by servomotors.

The cloud burst upstream resulted in an extraordinary amount of debris accumulating in the reservoir. This excess debris posed a significant risk to the dam's structural integrity by exerting additional pressure. Given the urgency of the situation and the vast quantity of debris, capturing and removing it within a reasonable timeframe was not feasible. As a result, the decision was made to utilize the flap gates to flush the debris downstream. This is a standard procedure designed to mitigate such risks and protect the dam. While this approach may temporarily displace the problem, it's essential to implement long-term solutions to prevent future accumulation and minimize the impact on downstream areas.

@GREYSKYY151 That's a really interesting observation! Do you have any other insights into the fluid dynamics at play here?

Glad you liked it

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Not a chance. But there are screens to keep them out. Practical Engineering did some really good videos on how they deal with fish at dams.

@jeffspaulding9834 It doesn't harm fish. They can easily pass through. Enough space to pass a fish.

@@hydropowerwithalinaqvi Are they new turbines? I've read that the newer turbines are designed to allow fish to pass through (mostly) unharmed, but fish can't handle the pressure differential in older turbine designs (hence the screens).

Fish-friendly designs: Runner designs, such as rounded leading edges, reduce fish injury. However, after the shutdown and during periodic inspection, no fish were found inside the spiral case or tailrace tunnel.

@jeffspaulding9834, please subscribe to the channel, support, and share among interested people's.

But bigger

Indeed it is

We've inspected 5 kilometers of the 30-kilometer tunnel so far.

@jupiterblue3227 Interesting perspective! What do you think is the connection between engineering and the afterlife?

@@hydropowerwithalinaqvi I was mostly joking But Elijah did go to heaven on a flaming chariot lol

Absolutely right. 💯

Please share and subscribe.

Sure.

For closing the valve without hydraulic pressure in case of an emergency

Also allows the designer to use a single way ram, which is stronger and smaller than a two way ram. Mostly a fail safe design feature.

@@ian020881superb answer

Thanks

For dams and cannals where floating debris is more.

Thanks

shukrya

Mechanical work already completed :-)

@@hydropowerwithalinaqvi would like to inspect next time...

@@sohaibjarral3088 sure come back on NJ

Thanks

@@hydropowerwithalinaqvi keep making such videos

@@sohaibjarral3088 i will

Perhaps show such a gate in action?

Sure

Thank you!

Is it informative?
