Why Choose this Training Course?
Francis Turbine combines impulse and reaction forces in order to produce electricity efficiently, having as an input flow of water going through its blades. This type of turbine is typically installed in hydro power stations. The most common application in a hydroelectric power plant is an impoundment facility. An impoundment facility is a large system that requires a structure to hold and store water (a dam). Water from this storage area is used as input through the turbine and the rotation created drives a generator that produces electricity.
In this Turbine: Fundamental, Design and Maintenance training course the components of a hydro-turbine/ generator system components are explained, and focus is given in inspection, condition monitoring and failure analysis.
