The study summarize of computational method on transition process in hydropower units

In the operation of the hydropower units, it often come across condition changes such as start-up, normal stop, increase or decrease the load and load rejection. This will cause the hydraulic transient process of the water power generation system, which is of great significance to the safe and stable operation of hydropower station. This paper analyzes the method to calculate the transient process of hydropower unit and expounds the principle of all kinds of calculation methods and steps to lay a foundation for further optimization study.
