Application of the model Thormas- Fiering to simulate flow time series and it's application to operation of electric stations

Abstract

    The combined operation of a system of hydro- power plants is still a difficult and complex problem. The operation of a hydro- power plant system is mostly relevant to hydrological characteristic or the inflow regime. One of the common methods applied to analysis of changing period to determine flow regime is Thomas- Fiering. This paper presents an application of ThomasFiering model to flow time series in order to get the flow regime and apply the results to the appropriately coordinating operation of hydro- power plant system.
