Francis Turbine Demonstration Unit / PC- Engineering Lab Training Systems Description and Specifications for Lab Tenders
Francis Turbine Demonstration Unit / PC- Engineering Lab Training Systems.
Technical Description
The function and operating behaviour
of a Francis turbine can be investigated using . A transparent housing
cover allows a clear view of the running turbine. The interaction of
guide vanes, water flow and runner are clearly visible. The turbine
power output is regulated by adjustable guide vanes. An adjustable DC
generator with current converter as braking device is used as turbine
load. The unit is fitted with electronic sensors to measure turbine
speed, flow rate, pressure and braking torque. The values are directly
indicated on digital displays and can be transferred for further
processing to a PC. The demonstration unit includes a closed water
circuit. It is possible to cool the water circuit via an integrated
cooling coil in the supply tank if the water temperature is above 40°C Fluid Mechanics Lab Equipments manufacturers
