Abstract
A diagrammed arrangement of dams and station assemblies for symmetrical HPP are presented. Principal results of the design and 3D hydrodynamic computer simulation of low-head flow in a turbine unit are discussed for a traditional HPP and in a centrally symmetrical turbine unit of symmetrical HPPs, with confirmation of predicted fundamentally higher power efficiency of the new design.
