Abstract
An introduction to the physical characteristics of the hydraulic system of hydropower plants is given in this chapter. The basic components of the hydraulic subsystem are discussed (turbines, guide vanes, etc.). Different types of models are examined, and the advantages of using nonlinear models for simulation studies are discussed. The effect of water elasticity and the hydraulic coupling between units sharing a common tunnel is considered, and why these effects should be incorporated into the simulation model of a power plant is explained.
