FIGURE 5 Ocean and pool levels in a modulated single-pool tidal
                     system. C  =  gates  closed,  G  =  generation. F  =  pool  filling,  E  =  pool
                     emptying.


                  This  calculation  procedure  is  the  work  of  M.  M.  El-Wakil  given  in  his

               excellent  text, Powerplant  Technology,  McGraw-Hill,  1984  and  2002.  The
               reader  should  refer  to  that  text  for  further  insight  into  energy  calculations,
               along with the derivation of the equations given here. The handbook editor

               added minor transitional wording to adapt the procedure to the format used in
               the handbook.
