| Abstract: |
| Water and energy are among the basic resources for the development of human life and society, global warming, population growth and rapid industrial development have aggravated the crisis of water shortage and imbalance in energy supply and demand. Distributed production of electrical energy is one of the goals that has been considered for a long time. In this research, pump turbines have been investigated, designed and interpreted. As a result, for Shahrchai Dam in Urmia, in the state of the average level of the lake's water for statistical years, a small pump-turbine-type hydroelectric power plant or reverse pump was designed and the power obtained from this power plant in two states: P_max=114kw and P_min=108kw calculated and extracted. In addition to the production of electrical energy with high economic efficiency, it also has a significant contribution to the recovery of the potential energy of the water in the transmission pipe and the reduction of environmental pollution. |
