| Résumé | A study on the amount of river hydrokinetic energy (HKE) available at a bedrock depth constriction was conducted on the Spanish River in Ontario, Canada. Far fewer, if any, river HKE analyses have been conducted at locations where a depth constriction creates high energy flow conditions compared to the number of HKE studies where slope or width create high energy conditions. Thus, a HKE resource assessment was conducted to assess the feasibility of extracting energy resources for a nearby community and to better understand technical approaches for assessing energy resources caused by depth constrictions. The HKE of the study location was estimated according to the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) standards for river HKE resource assessment. A 1.5 km long section of the river was surveyed twice: on September 21, 2021 (110 m³/s) and April 28, 2022 (650 m³/s). An acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) was used to collect data to facilitate the development, calibration, and validation of a hydrodynamic model. The flow velocity was found to exceed 1 m/s when the river flow was greater than 200 m3/s, corresponding to the 19% probability of exceedance for the river. Thus, turbine prototypes that have been targeting velocities lower than 1 m/s may be more suitable for the study reach and for other sites with similar velocity characteristics. The final feasibility indicator for river HKE resource is the annual energy production (AEP), which was calculated to be 1.9 MWh/year for this reach of the Spanish River. |
