ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS
Question 1
a. Based on initial assessment, there are 3 possible river locations that have
been listed as suitable for development of the dam and hydroelectric water
plant as shown in Table 1. Based on the information below, design and
identify the best location for placement of hydroelectric power plant based
on the generated power.
Table 1: Information on the river location

Location Water head Average Cross- Cost of


possible after Velocity of sectional building dam
dam placed flowing water area of water (RM)
(m) (m/s) flow (m2)
Location 1 1.8 2.3 8.8 2 million

Location 2 1.7 1.9 8.5 1.7 million

Location 3 2.2 2.1 9.1 2.1 million

Location 4 1.6 2.2 8.9 1.8 million

(3 marks)

Answer:

b. Using similar information from Table 1, compose the energy the


hydroelectric plant would produce in one year at each location if the
efficiency of the turbine is 92.3%. Given the plant need to produce 6500
kWh of energy for 350 end users. Which location should be recommended
based on cost and compliance with minimum energy requirement?
(4 marks)

Answer:
