Hydroelectric Power House Structures Sectional Committee, WRD 15

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard (Second Revision) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized
by the Hydroelectric Power House Structures Sectional Committee had been approved by the Water Resources
Division Council.
This standard was first published in 1968. The first revision was done in 1982 to include requirements of
natural ventilation with the provision of windows and ventilators. Since, then more experience has been gained
in the field and to reflect the latest practices the present revision has been taken up. In this revision, requirements
of inside temperature and relative humidity has been specified. Also reference has been given for design of air
conditioning using data for outside design conditions for air conditioning for Indian cities.
Due consideration should be given to the ventilation requirements in designing surface hydel power stations.
Provision for ventilation becomes necessary in the power station building to provide for any or all of the following
purposes:
a) To prevent temperature stratification,
b) To remove contaminated or vitiated air,
c) To remove waste heat from generators,
d) To provide for cooling or heating of building,
e) To furnish clean/tempered air, and
f) To furnish outside air necessary for human comfort.
Ventilation in surface hydel power stations by natural means alone using gravity may be sufficient in some
stations to meet the above mentioned purposes. Where these purposes cannot be met by natural ventilation, forced
ventilation or combination of the two with heating and cooling systems, where necessary, may be resorted to
ensure clean, and if necessary, tempered air to reach various premises in the power station, which will, otherwise,
receive little or no ventilation and where for the protection of equipment and to maintain satisfactory thermal
environments, the heat to be removed is too great to be handled by gravity.
This standard is one of a series of Indian Standards on surface hydel power stations. Other standards so far
published in this series are the following:
IS 4247 (Part 1) : 1993 Code of practice for structural design of surface hydroelectric power stations:
Part 1 Data for design (third revision)
IS 4461 : 1998 Code of practice for joints in surface hydroelectric power stations (second
revision)
IS 4721 : 2014 Code of practice for drainage and dewatering of surface hydroelectric power
stations (second revision)
The Committee responsible for the formulation of this standard is given in Annex B.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the final value
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis shall be rounded off in accordance with
IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised )’. The number of significant places retained in the
rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.
