Abstract

In this thesis, various HPP models for different study purposes are developed. For a clearer demonstration and classification of models, they are distinguished from two aspects: (1) the implementation and (2) the generator modelling approach, as shown in Fig. 3.1. In this chapter, numerical Models in TOPSYS and MATLAB, models for theoretical derivation and numerical models in MATLAB for HPPs with Kaplan Turbines are built and presented.
