The Francis turbine generator unit is a reaction type hydroelectric generating set (per IEC TR 61364 standard), the most widely adopted turbine solution for hydropower stations. Water flows radially into the runner circumference, turns downwards and discharges axially from the runner outlet. The flow drives the runner to rotate, converting hydraulic energy into mechanical energy, which further drives the generator to produce electric power. It is applicable for net head ranging from 20 m to 700 m.

Category: Power generation equipment

Product Introduction

Kaplan (Axial-flow) turbine-generator unit is reaction-type hydro-power unit, suitable for medium-low-head (2-30 m) large-discharge hydropower stations. The unit adopts vertical-shaft layout. Water flows through the runner along the axial direction of main shaft. It includes adjustable-blade Kaplan type and fixed-blade propeller type, for exploiting low-head hydropower resources in middle-lower river reaches. Reference project: Norway New KK Hydropower Station (1 × 40 000 kW).

 

Working Principle

Water flows axially into runner and strikes airfoil-shaped blades to rotate runner, converting hydraulic energy into mechanical energy. The main shaft drives synchronous generator to produce electric power. For Kaplan type, runner-blade angle can be adjusted during operation to adapt to fluctuation of water head & discharge; propeller-type has fixed-pitch blades for stable operating-condition stations.

 

Technical Features

1.Specially designed for medium-low-head & large-discharge working condition with vertical-shaft layout;
2.Double regulation (wicket gate + runner blade) for Kaplan variant, offering wide high-efficiency operating range and stable efficiency under variable head-discharge conditions. Fixed-pitch propeller type features simpler structure and lower cost;
3.Large flow-passing capacity, well-suited for plain run-of-river hydropower stations;
4.Custom-built unit output according to project head and flow; proven overseas project references available.
