7. Glossary
Vannes de contrôle de la pression PCV; pressure control valvesPCV
Efficient and robust solution for pressure control in water distribution networks, even if they cause energy dissipation without any recovery.
Turbomachinery; turbomachinery
Devices that convert potential energy into electrical energy by hydraulically or electrically regulating the inlet flow.
Power Recovery System PRS; Système de récupération d'énergie PRS
Inspired by Banki-Michell turbines, PRS offers a combination of optimum performance in power generation and pressure regulation. It's an alternative to PATs (pumps as turbines) for power generation.
PRS et PCV placés en série ; PRS and PCV placed in series
Scheme designed to recover energy from the PRS, control pressures in the network via the PCV, reduce the energy dissipated by the PCV and reduce stress on the pipes.
