A Francis turbine is a type of reaction turbine that efficiently converts water’s kinetic energy into mechanical power, commonly used in hydroelectric power plants for medium-head applications. It combines radial and axial flow principles, with water entering radially and exiting axially. 

Production Range

• Head : 12 – 250m
• Turbine Output : 100kW – 5MW

NOTE : Data in the table are informative and can differ depending on actual project characteristics.

Design

• Horizontal Shaft
• Vertical Shaft

Applications

• Our horizontal Francis units can be supplied with over hung design or with a separate Turbine shaft with provision of adequate flywheel in the cases where penstock is relatively long
