  • How to Optimize a Francis Turbine Generator
    Post time: Jul-15-2022

    A water turbine, with the Kaplan, Pelton, and Francis turbines being the most common ones, is a large rotary machine that works to convert kinetic and potential energy into hydroelectricity. These modern equivalents of the water wheel have been used for over 135 years for industrial power generat...Read more »

  • Why hydropower is the forgotten giant of clean energy
    Post time: Jul-14-2022

    Hydropower is by far the largest renewable worldwide, producing over twice as much energy as wind, and over four times as much as solar. And pumping water up a hill, aka “pumped storage hydropower”, comprises well over 90% of the world’s total energy storage capacity. But in spite of hydropower’...Read more »

  • Where does the power of the hydro-generator rotor come from?
    Post time: Jun-09-2022

    Both hydropower and thermal power must have an exciter. The exciter is generally connected to the same large shaft as the generator. When the large shaft rotates under the drive of the prime mover, it simultaneously drives the generator and the exciter to rotate. The exciter is a DC generator tha...Read more »
