Abstract
To ensure the safety of hydraulic engineering structures (HESs), we analyze the methods and requirements on equipment for seismological monitoring in the area of emplacement, inspecting the state of a dam, and vibration control of machinery operation. We present a technical solution realized for the Chirkey hydroelectric power station (HPS) (Caucasus), which has no analogs worldwide and is the first to combine these types of observations. The system results in more economic and rational use of sensors, as well as novel monitoring capabilities. As an illustration, we demonstrate the possibility of detecting hazardous hydrodynamic phenomena at the early stage of their manifestation at a point remote from the HPS turbine.
