Kaplan Turbine Generator Unit / Axial-Flow Water Turbine
Kaplan turbines are widely used throughout the world for electrical power production. They cover the lowest head hydro sites and are especially suited for high flow conditions.The head ranges from 3m to 80m.
Kaplan turbine also known as axial flow -turbine is developed in 1913 by the Austrian professor Kaplan.Its invention allowed efficient power production in low-head applications that was not possible with Francis turbines.
The feature of Kaplan turbine is the water flow passes through the runner axially.
Kaplan turbines are widely used throughout the world for electrical power production. They cover the lowest head hydro sites and are especially suited for high flow conditions.
Inexpensive micro turbines on the Kaplan turbine model are manufactured for individual power production with as little as two feet of head.
The axial-flow turbine can be classified into two forms according to the runner construction: fixed blades (Propeller) for small variation of head and power, the other is adjustable blades (Kaplan) for large variation of head and power.
