Typical Intake Structure Layouts
5
Hydrodynamic Zone of InfluenceHZI - The area around the intake through which intake flow is impacted.
6
Minto Fish Collection Facility Case Study
The Minto Fish Collection facility used flat panels and a gallery of air burst manifolds to maintain clean screens to aid in fish passage.
7
Intake Structure Sizing
1. How much filtration
2. Volume of flow
3. Approach & sweeping velocity
4. Head loss
The Starting Point for Sizing is the Same as Any Other Process Technology

Hydrolox Drive Mechanism and Fish Delivery
• Identical split stainless steel 13.5” diameter drive sprocket for both screen types.
• Light weight polymer material (40% less) and full width engagement enables faster response times and instantaneous screen speed changes during debris episodes.
• Hydrolox screens are designed to run 24/7.
• Positive drive system distributes load across the entire screen width; eliminates mis-tracking, uneven wear and transmits consistent torque

Review Questions
• Define approach velocity.
• Based on testing performed by Alden, what is the ratio of sweeping to slot velocity at which fish are able to sense and avoid a screen flow field.
• When sizing a Coanda accelerator, what are the interrelated variables one must account for?
