This video uses an interactive 3D model to explain how a Kaplan hydroelectric turbine run-of-the-river power station works. It details some of the main components such as the sluice gate, trash rack, weir, penstock, volute casing, kaplan turbine and generator.
The 3D model in the video can be found at saVRee.com or 3D-knowledge.com.
