Evaluation of Hydraulics and Downstream Fish Migration at Run-of-River Hydropower Plants with Horizontal Bar Rack Bypass Systems by Using CFD

Anthropogenic structures often block or delay the downstream migration of fish in rivers, thereby affecting their populations. A potential solution at run-of-river hydropower plants (HPPs) is the construction of a fish guidance structure in combination with a bypass system located at its downstream...
