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
Most common water turbine in use today
Suitable for hydro-power stations with medium or high head
Compact in structure, reasonable in design, convenient in operation and maintenance and excellent in efficiency
They are in both vertical and horizontal shaft arrangement and can be vastly selected by the hydraulic power stations
With many years of our own experience and absorbing advanced technology from domestic and abroad sources, and in meeting ever growing requirements of stations for various hydraulic power resources, the manufacture and design level has been raised to new stages
We, SHPE specialized in Francis turbine over 50 years.
Water Head Applicable: H=20M-450M. Used for middle & high water head with middle level of water flow, it is divided into vertical type and horizontal type. It is simple and reliable in wide application with complete products series.
