Horizontal Francis Turbine of Vertical Water Inlet Direction

Horizontal Francis turbine of vertical water inlet direction can level up the height of powerhouse to protect it from the destruction of the flood.

Francis turbine is a kind of water turbine is that the water inflows along the radium direction, and then outflows along the axial direction when water flows across the blades of the runner.

Francis turbine is one of the hydro turbines widely used around the world，and it has many advantages,such as a wide available range of water head,efficient output,simple structure.
  Francis turbines manufactured by Boland can be used in water head from 15m to 250m, the diameter of the runner is from 0.35m to 4.5m, and the installed capacity of a single unit is from 50KW to 50MW roughly.

With metal volute painted by antirust paint ,it can guide water flow and convert liquid kinetic energy into static energy.As for water guiding mechanism,it can adjust water flow and water circulation,as well as open&close the turbine.The water flows via volute,water guiding mechanism,runner,then to the draft tube.
