‘The Francis turbine is a highly efficient and adaptable Francis turbine that is widely used in hydropower plants with medium to high heads and medium flows. It combines the advantages of radial and axial flow and has been at the heart of the global hydropower sector since its invention in the 19th century, accounting for more than 60 per cent of the world's installed turbine capacity.’
Francis turbine has advantages that other types of turbines do not have, as follows:
High efficiency
"Within the head range of 30-500 meters, the Francis turbine has a maximum efficiency of more than 94%, especially under partial load, it can still maintain stable output, suitable for scenarios with large fluctuations in grid demand."
Flexible adaptation
"When the flow changes, it can quickly respond to load changes by adjusting the guide vanes and runner blades, suitable for hydropower stations that take into account both base load and peak load."
Long-term reliability
"Compact structure, anti-cavitation materials and modular design, long maintenance cycle. For example, the Francis unit of a hydropower station in Norway has been running without major repairs for more than 30 years."
Environmental protection and economy
"Zero-emission power generation, and the initial investment is quickly recovered through a high rate of return. Depending on the size of the installed capacity, the payback period is usually 5-8 years."
Head range: 30m – 500m
Flow range: 10m³/s – 800m³/s
Power coverage: 5MW – 800MW/single unit
Customization: The rotor diameter can reach 10 meters, supporting special designs such as high sediment content or low temperature water environment.
