Basics
Potential energy, energy of the position
To lift a body with the weight G (G = m x g) to the height H the needed energy is calculated by the
equation:
𝐸𝑝𝑜𝑡 = 𝑚 ∙ 𝑔 ∙ 𝐻 𝐽 = 𝑘𝑔 ∙𝑚
𝑠2∙ 𝑚 =
𝑘𝑔 ∙ 𝑚²
𝑠²
Kinetic energy, energy of motion
Ability of bodies in motion to execute energy (work):
𝐸𝑘𝑖𝑛 = 𝑚 ∙𝑣²
2 𝐽 = 𝑘𝑔 ∙
𝑚²
𝑠2=
𝑘𝑔∙𝑚²
𝑠²

Unit of energy
„Joule“ = international physical unit of energy
1 J = 1 𝑘𝑔∙𝑚2
𝑠2
1 Joule = 1 Wattssecond [1 J = 1 Ws]
Kilowatt-hour (kWh)
1 Wh = 3,6 kJ
1 kWh = 3,6 MJ

Turbine power (power on the turbine shaft) is calculated as follows: Pmech = ρ g Q HN ηTu ρ density of water (~1.000 kg/m³)
g local gravity [~9,81 m/s2]
ηTu Turbine efficiency [-] Q water discharge QA [m³/s] HN net head HN [m]
The electric engergy is calculated: PEL = Pmech ηGen. ηTr ηGen Generator efficiency ηTr Transformer efficiency

Hydro power plants
Hydro power plants can be classified by different criteria:
1. In the way of water utilization
Run-off river power plants
Storage power plants
Pump storage power plants
2. Determination by pressure (head)
Low pressure power plants (up to 20m head)
Medium pressure power plants (20 to 100 m head)
High pressure power plants (above 100 m head)
