Francis turbine has the advantages of compact structure, high efficiency and can adapt to a wide range of water head of turbine type. It is one of the widely used ar 20KW mini hydro turbine-generator ound the world; When the water flow through the turbine wheel, it enters to radial, axial flow, so it is also called the radial axial flow turbine; Francis turbine is also called the Francis turbine. ...

Forster Francis turbine is the ideal choice for medium head and large flow. Forster Francis turbines are available in varying configurations, horizontal or vertical, with flexibility in design to ensure best efficiency and reliability of operation under the most extreme conditions. Forster Francis turbines are characterized by incomparable longevity, durability, reliability, and robustness. ...

Unlike other types of turbines which are reaction turbines, the Pelton turbine is known as an impulse turbine. This simply means that instead of moving as a result of a reaction force, water creates some impulse on the turbine to get it to move. When used for generating electricity, there is usually a water reservoir located at some height above the Pelton turbine. The water then flows through ...

A turbine converts energy in the form of falling water into rotating shaft power. The selection of the best turbine for any particular hydro site depends on the site characteristics, the dominant ones being the head and flow available. Selection also depends on the desired running speed of the generator or other device loading the turbine. Other considerations such as whether the turbine is ...
