Horizontal Francis Hydro Turbine / Francis Water Turbine with Water Head From 20m to 300m
Descrition:
The Francis type turbine is mostly suitable for hydropower stations with medium or high head from 10m to 300m. They are in both vertical or horizontal shaft arrangement and could be vastly selected by the hydraulic power stations.
lts feature is that the water flow enters the runner inward in a radial direction , changes direction gradually and then passes out axially. Francis turbine is characterized by reliable operation, simple construction and high efficiency, etc.
This hydraulic turbine type is Horizontal Francis. A inlet valve is equipped in front of the spiral casing of the turbine. When viewed at the turbine from the generator end, the rotating direction of the hydraulic turbine is clockwise .The turbine is horizontal shaft and metallic spiral casing and the runner diameter is 875mm. This unit has two bearings, assembled on the generator seat. The principal parts of the structure of turbine as follows:
Horizontal Shaft Francis Hydro Turbine / Francis Water Turbine with Stainless steel Runner
