Hydro Turbine

Hydro turbines are devices that transfer the moving water energy to mechanical rotating shaft energy. They are used in hydroelectric plants to generate electricity. Hydro turbines rotate by the energy of flowing water being hit to their blades and can be classified based on how water flows through the turbine itself. Generally, there are three categories of water flow through turbines namely Axial Flow, Radial Flow, and Mixed Flow. 

Design and selection of the right hydro turbine have always been a challenge for the design engineers and consultants as it may affect both the operation and profitability of the power plant. Moreover, keeping hydro turbines up and running also is a real challenge for the service engineers and maintenance team as it directly affects the operation and productivity of the power plant.
