Francis Turbine Test Setup

Product Code : SCL-CELE-14104

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Francis Turbine Test Setup (Product ID: 14104) as part of its Civil Engineering Lab Equipment range. It measures the output and efficiency of a mixed-flow Francis reaction turbine.

Quick Answer

A centrifugal pump feeds water radially to the runner through a guide mechanism that sets the flow direction and rate; the water leaves axially through a draught tube. The runner is mounted on a stainless steel shaft supported by a cast iron pedestal inside a water-filled casing with an acrylic viewing window. Pressure and vacuum gauges at inlet and outlet give the head, and a brake arrangement applies load. The supply is 15 kW, 440 V three phase.
