An experimental and numerical investigation into using hydropower plant on oil transmission lines

“…Likewise, in line with the international goals for the prevention of the fossil energies' destructive effects, different technologies such as solar chimney power plants in large and small scales were introduced. 1 However, among the different employed conventional alternatives, one of the most useful technologies over the past years is hydropower. Statistics represent that until 2017, hydropower took an appropriate position among all other renewable systems by representing 19.2% of total installed capacity.…”

“…Renewable energy is recognized as a clean source and proper alternative for the supply of energy demand, and it is fundamentally essential to economic development. Likewise, in line with the international goals for the prevention of the fossil energies' destructive effects, different technologies such as solar chimney power plants in large and small scales were introduced 1 . However, among the different employed conventional alternatives, one of the most useful technologies over the past years is hydropower.…”
