Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station

Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station rather than just read about it. In short: The Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station is located just south of Chelgard and about 69 km (43 mi) northwest of Shahrekord in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province, Iran. The power station has an installed capacity of 33.3 MW and uses water diverted to the east from the Kouhrang River, via a small dam and the 2 km (1.2 mi) long Kouhrang 2 Tunnel, to produce power.

Key takeaways

Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

The Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station is located just south of Chelgard and about 69 km (43 mi) northwest of Shahrekord in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province, Iran. The power station has an installed capacity of 33.3 MW and uses water diverted to the east from the Kouhrang River, via a small dam and the 2 km (1.2 mi) long Kouhrang 2 Tunnel, to produce power. Water from the Kouhrang is stored in a circular dam (Kouhrang 2 Dam) before being sent to the power station. The power station's three generators were commissioned between 2002 and 2004, the power plant were inaugurated in February 2005. Water discharged from the power station enters the Zayandeh River as part of a larger project to provide water to major cities like Isfahan. The intake for the power plant is located on the Kouhrang River (32°24′35.71″N 50°07′36.81″E) just downstream of the Kouhrang 1 Dam which also diverts water, via the 2,800 m (9,200 ft) long Kouhrang 2 Tunnel, to near Chelgard and was completed in 1953. The Kouhrang 3 Dam is planned downstream to regulate river flows and divert more water to the Zayandeh via the Kouhrang 3 Tunnel.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station

In research: Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Dams completed in 2005, Dams in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province, Earth-filled dams, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Kouhrang 2 Hydroelectric Power Station outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
