Horizontal Francis turbine
The Francis turbine is a type of water turbine that was developed by James B. Francis. It is an inward flow reaction turbine that combines radial and axial flow concepts. Francis turbines are the most common water turbine in use today.
The Francis type turbines are mostly suitable for hydro-power stations with medium or high head. The Francis type turbines manufactured by the Fuchun are compact in structure, reasonable in design, convenient in operation and maintenance and excellent in efficiency.
Francis turbines are built in a compact structure, with high efficiency, and can be applied to a wide range of water heads. This feature makes the Francis turbine type a widely used one around the world. The key Francis turbine components includes Runner, Distributor, Main shaft, Main shaft seal, Turbine guide bearing, Governor, among other.
They are in both vertical and horizontal shaft arrangement and can be vastly selected by the hydraulic power stations.
