Keywords: Fish upstream passage; Hydropower turbine; Turbulence; Fish behaviour; Fishway design

Abstract: Fish behaviour investigations in the tailwater of a hydropower turbine test rig were conducted and showed significant influence of turbine operating conditions and the respective hydraulics on fish upstream passage movement, which might help to improve the efficiency of fishways.
