Hydraulic Low Head Vertical Spiral Fixed Blade Kaplan Turbine Generator 400-1000KW
The design of the vertical Spiral kaplan turbine according to operational data is based on numerical flow simulations for the step-by-step optimisation of the guide vane and runner blade design developed. The spiral and draft tube geometries were made available by the customer and were later modified in order to reach the highest possible top efficiency level.
Additionally, a flow-and-pressure-coefficient efficiency shell has been calculated which enables the conversion and the scaling of the hydraulics for other power plant applications with similar specific speeds. The power plant went to line in 2011, and since then it produces environmentally friendly/green electricity from hydropower.
Follow is the layout of the Kaplan turbine power plant
Components including stator, rotor,base frame, bearing, excitation motor or collecting ring. The outlet voltage from 400V to 13.8KV, and frequency could be 50Hz or 60Hz, output from 50Kw to 50Mw. Our generator are high efficiency, reliable, manufacture and tests all follow related IEC standards.

Advantage | Advantage |
1. The difference in operating head can be extra simply controlled in Francis turbine than in Pelton wheel turbine. 2. Ratio of utmost and least operating head can be even be two in case of Francis Turbine. 3. Mechanical efficiency of pelton wheel decrease faster by wear than Francis turbine. 4. Francis turbine variation in operating head can be more simply controlled. 5. No head failure occurs still at low discharge of water. | Covers the boundary between Francis and Pelton. 1. Limits Over-Pressure Effect over the penstock. 2. Higher speed = weight and cost reduction. 3. Maintains efficiency over a wide flow range. 4. Superior abrasion resistance. 5. Ease of operation and maintenance. |
1. You are a trading company or a manufacture?
We are a hydro turbine manufacture with over 60 years of experiences, we have facilities in Zigong City, pay a visit to our factory you will know more about us.
2. How to choose a right turbine? There are so many models offering on your website. And how to calculate the turbine capacity?
Just tell me the water head, flow rate, our senior engineer will work out the solution for you. The turbine capacity: P=Flow rate(cubic meter/second) * Water head(m) * 9.8(G) * 0.8(efficiency).
3. What information shoul I provide for getting the quotation?
We need to know water head, flow rate, voltage level, frequency, on-grid or off-grid running, automation level from you to work out the solution.
4. When my turbine shut down, who can help me solve the problem?
You are free to call me day or night at my cellphone number +8613540368205. I am sure our engineer able to fix the problem either by changing spare parts or remove something.
5.Can you do EPC for a hydroelectric power plant?
Yes, we can provide TURN-KEY and EPC services including measurement, design, manufacturing, construction, manufacturing, commissioning, inspection, maintenance runner replacement and refurbishment/upgrade/improvement/repair/refurbishment of turbines/generators including bearings, seals For parts and key parts, we will send technicians and workers to install equipment.
6. How can I trust you?
Pay us via trade assurance is not a problem. And we also accept L/C. To build mutul-trust we think pay a visit to our facility is the best way.
Q7,Does your company have its own independent official website?
Of course, and we can see more information about our company and products on our official website. website address: www.fstgenerator.com
Hydro Turbine belongs to customized products. We could design products according to your requirement. Could you give us the following parameters so that we could make a professional solution for your project.
1.Flow rate ( lit/sec or m³/sec?)
2.Water head ( m?)
3.Total power you need( KW?)
4.Frequency ( 50 hz or 60 hz?)
5. Voltage( V?)
6. On grid or off grid?
7. Voltage of transmission line if it is on grid( V?)
8. Elevation(MSL)
9. Is it clean fresh water(with our sand, stone and silt ect,.)
By the way,could you tell me your whatsapp number(phone number) ?
