Diseño y simulación hidráulica para una central hidroeléctrica con una capacidad de generación de 16.8 mw

Abstract

The engine of much of the growth in the sector of the global clean energy comes from renewable sources such as sunlight, wind, geothermal, hydro and primarily is due to political changes and private investment to generate new sources of energy electrical clean. In our country a priority of the central government today is to promote the growth of large hydroelectric potential of the country, located especially in the eastern cordillera of the country, where resources and potential exist. It is therefore critical that state and private institutions to take a leading role in the energy sector, mainly in hydropower development, taking into account the current energy deficit and the marginal cost of energy, which makes it extremely attractive to the especially private investment. Universities through their students can also support the studies of pre-feasibility and feasibility of hydropower projects under the guidance of their faculty qualified for that reason has made the design and simulation of a hydroelectric plant, to obtain clean electricity from the bed of the river bed.
