Experiment of Settling Effect of Ecuador's Coca Codo Sinclair Hydropower Station Settling Basin

Article Preview

Abstract:

We designed and constructed a model of Ecuador's Coca Codo Sinclair Hydropower Station, observed its intake discharge, flow pattern, flow velocity distribution and desilting effect and the desilting effect of the desilting facilities. Through model experiment and comparison among a variety of body types based on the experiment result of the original design scheme, we recommended a modified body type that is favourable for the settling basin to desilt.
