Studies have shown the unconditional danger of biological attacks on underground hydroelectric pumped-storage power stations. A hypothetical list of biological damage to water conduits and dams is determined. Relevant predictions are given, as well as accident events of hydraulic structures are described. A universal scheme for the application of hazard protection measures, which can be comprehensive, has been developed. Praemonitus praemunitus – precautions should be taken.

Pumped-storage power technology is currently the only available energy storage technology in the grid net, and its reliability is receiving attention increasingly. However, when a pump-turbine unit undergoes runaway transitions, hydraulic fluctuations intensively affect the reliable operation of a pumped-storage power station. To reduce hydraulic fluctuations, this study investigated the formation mechanism of hydraulic fluctuations and explored its influence factors. In this study, a developed one-dimensional and three-dimensional (1 D-3D) coupling simulation method was adopted. Transient runaway transitions of a pump-turbine with three different inertias (0.5 J, 1 J, and 2.0 J) at three different guide vane openings (21°, 15°, and 12°, respectively) were simulated and compared. The results suggest that, at smaller guide vane openings (15° and 12°), water hammer owing to the increase in rotational speed is the primary unstable issue compared to the pulsation of radial hydraulic exciting forces on the runner. However, at a larger guide vane opening (21°), the latter owing to the back-flow near the runner inlet is the primary unstable issue. Moreover, it is found that a sufficiently large inertia improves the hydraulic fluctuations of the pump-storage power station, particularly in reducing the pulsation of radial hydraulic exciting loads on the runner. The findings of this study provide a valuable reference for determining suitable rotor inertia.

The article discusses the control system of a hydraulic power source of constant pressure, which is a pump-storage power source, equipped with the original design of the automatic unloading of the hydraulic pump, which provides relay switching of its operation mode. A mathematical model is proposed, obtained using a modeling technique based on the application of the theory of volumetric rigidity of hydraulic systems and their elements. The results of a numerical experiment carried out by numerically solving the equations that make up the mathematical model of a power source are also presented. As a result of a numerical experiment, the main technical capabilities of the considered power source and the influence of its main structural parameters and functional features of the system on operational properties are revealed. The results showed that due to changes in various design parameters of the unloading machine, you can not only change the upper (maximum) and lower (minimum) values of the battery charging pressure, but also adjust their difference depending on the requirements for the power source.

Pressure fluctuations strongly affect the performance stability of the Pump-turbine unit. According to previous research, pressure fluctuations observed between runner and guide vanes (vaneless area) have the large amplitudes and complicated sources. This article analyzed this type of pressure fluctuations in transient operating period, by carrying out observations in a pump-storage power station. Amplitudes and frequencies were analyzed to show the characteristics of pressure fluctuations caused by rotor-stator interaction, vibration and vortex.
