Abstract The rate of water consumption is considered as the turbine flow discharge that generates kWh of electricity. It is also considered an essential method for enhancing hydropower efficiency and capacity. IEC 60041 has proposed a method for measuring the turbine flow on the basis of the thermodynamics method. In this study, thermodynamic methods have been adopted for measuring the absolute flow discharge and rate of water consumption in a hydropower unit. Winter-Kennedy coefficient has been used for measuring the water consumption rate of the turbine. Results that have been obtained from this study could be used for optimizing the economical operation of different units.

The rate of water consumption in the hydropower units can be used for evaluating economic operations for these electrical substations. The hill chart curve of a turbine could be calculated and converted with the help of a model test. This will help in developing certain limitations to the system’s functionality.
