Stainless Steel 50MW Vertical Francis Turbine

Stainless Steel Or Cast Steel Francis Hydro Turbine

quick detail

The Francis turbine is a reaction turbine, which means that the water changes pressure as it moves through the turbine, giving up its energy. First, high pressure water enters the turbine through the spiral casing surrounding the guide vanes. Then water passes through guide vanes where it is directed to strike the blades on the runner at optimum angles. As the water flows through the runner its pressure and angular momentum reduces. This reduction imparts reaction on the runner and power is transferred to the turbine shaft.

our advantage

The strong points of our product are water turbine generator set with capacity ranging from 1MW to 50 MW; Francis generator set with high head & rotational speed; Axial flow generator set with low head & rotational speed. We also manufacture a complete set of equipment, such as valve, governor (including PLC microcomputer governor), excitation (including PLC mirco-computer excitation), and its automation, all of which can make the generator set work in harmony. The reconstruction and alteration of the old hydropower station is also our strength. Our company boasts more than 20 years of experience and technics in this field, providing the service of technical renewal, capacity-enlargement and reconstruction.

• application range

Applicable Range Head: 20-200m Flow: 0.15-10m3/sMost widely used turbine in the world. (70-80%)Applicable head and flow range is very wide.As a type of reaction turbine, the draft tube can be used to effectively increase net head.Peak efficiency is highest among all turbine types. (85-94%)Due to its complex design and large number of moving parts, maintenance and repair can be significant.
