Microhydel Manual for Engineers,Technical Experts and General Readers Chapter # 6(Civil Components of a Microhydel Power Project)

Hi guys, In civil components of a Microhydel Power Project include;

  • Channel
  • Sand Trap
  • Filtration Tank
  • Forebay
  • Anchor Blocks
  • Spillway
  • Power house room 
  • Waste way
  • Weir or Embankment or Intake
As the name shows, Microhydel is just like a child. You can't demand for a heavy duty from your child. To get something from your child, you have to courage and take care of the child, in other words, you have to spend some money on your child before preparing him for any task. Likewise, microhydel power projects need more attention then any of a big project. 
These projects are built on off river sites and also these projects are constructed at sites where small amount of water is available. Therefore, care should be taken to construct the civil structure on a sustainable procedure. For example, its channel should not leak and there should be no seepage along the path of channel otherwise, the small amount of water could not reach up to forebay as per its design limit. Similarly, other civil structure should be strong enough to with stand for a sustainable period. In this chapter, all the aspects of civil structure have been highlighted briefly.

 It is hoped that the reader would get enough knowledge from this chapter after reading the topics and he or she would be able to design and construct beautiful, durable and sustainable civil structures for these projects. Since, this is a complete chapter and each and everything regarding civil structure of a microhydel power project has been explained briefly in this chapter. Todays busy and tough life, it is complained  that youth doesn't read the books and the new generation spend time on social media. I would like to suggest the youth to make friendship with your books, read books of all kinds, faiths or believes, in either language, but get the knowledge you required and let throw the other unwanted stuff.
