III. Main Parameters and Characteristics of Supplied Equipments
- Water Turbine
Horizontal Shaft Francis Turbine
i.) General Description of the Francis Turbine
A Francis turbine consists of three major parts, the spiral case, the water distributor and the runner. the flow enter the water distribution mechanism from penstock, through MIV, expansion joint, spiral case. by the open and close of the wicket gate in the water distribution mechanism, thus control the flow into the turbine. The water enters the runner evenly and drives the runner to convert the water energy into mechanical energy, and transmit through the main shaft to drive the generator rotor to rotate and then the generator converts the mechanical energy into electric energy.
1). Water inlet structure: consists of inlet valve, expansion joint, etc. the inlet valve is to cut off the water in case of shut down the unit. it can also be used to emergently close the water in case of the unit accident and failure of the water distribution mechanism. The expansion joint is used to compensate the installation tolerance, and facilitate the install and dismantle of the MIV, it connect the spiral case at one end, to convey the water into the spiral case.
2). Spiral case: the spiral case is weld structure with steel board and stay rings, the wicket gate are fabricated in the stay rings. The spiral case forms a circular water flow, guide the flow evenly enter the water distribution mechanism and runner in circular direction. There is a valve at the top of the spiral case, to discharge the air when fill up the spiral case in start-up procedure; a drain valve is provided at the bottom of the spiral case, to drain the water in case of shut-down repairs.
3). Water distribution mechanism: consists of front cover, back cover, guide vanes, guide vane sleeves, etc. Its function is to form and change the circular rector, thus regulate the flow, to match the load change. It is also used to shut down the turbine in normal operation. The guide vane is supported by axis sleeves. The axis sleeves are sealed with O shape seal rings.
4). Runner: the runner the heart of the turbine, it converts the water energy into mechanical energy. The runner consists of upper crown, lower band, runner blades, combined by means of welding. The material can be customized according to client requirements. The runner is mounted on the generator shaft by cone shape and torque is transmitted by key. There are pressure discharge hole on the cone hub, to reduce the axial water pressure. There are seal ring on upper crown and lower band to reduce the leakage.
5). The daft tube consists of draft connection tube, bent tube, straight cone tube. Its function is to lead water down the stream, using the potential energy of the flow under suction height, and collect the kinetic energy of the flow left over from the outlet of the runner. All connected flanges of the draft tube should be sealed. The outlet of the cone tube lower end should be submerged with less than 400mm under water, to prevent air enter into the draft tube. There is air admission device on the draft connection tube to reduce the machine vibration.
6) Speed regulation system: consists of governor, servomotor, regulation ring, etc. the governor control the servomotor, regulation ring, to adjust the opening of the wicket gate according to load change, so the turbine output matches the outside load change.
When the governor was set at automatic position, if the turbine run away, it will automatically close the guide vane to empty load position and then the turbine can be shut down manually.
