FOREWORD

This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the
Hydroelectric Power House Structures Sectional Committee had been approved by the River Valley
Division Council.

Small hydrodevelopment has been taking place steadily since a very long time, where encouraging
factors exist-ed. This development has mostly taken place in remote mountaneous areas to meet the
local energy demand and in the plains, through development of canal drops wherever found attractive.
The cost of low head/small hydro-electric schemes depend largely on the civil engineering works, like
dam, water conductor system and power house, etc. The siting of low head hydro-electric schemes on
large irrigation canal offer a good scope to utilize the falls on the canal for generation of electricity
more economically.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the
final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in
accordance with 1s 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised )‘. The number of
significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in
this standard.

5 CLASSIFICATION OF TURBINES
5.1 General
The net head available to the,’ turbine dictates
the selection of type of turbine suitable for use
at a particular site. The iate of flow determines
the capacity of the turbine. Hydraulic turbines
have two general classificati0ns ( impulse and
reaction ).
5.1.1 Impulse Turbine
It is classified as Pelton, Turgo Impulse and
Cross-flow. Pelton turbine .-may be ‘niounted
either horizontally or verticaljy.
5.1.2 Reaction Turbine
,.
It is classified as Francis (mixed flow) or Prope-
ller ( axial flow ). Propeller’ turbines are with
both fixed blades and variable pitch blades
( Kaplan ). Both propeller and Francis turbines
may be mounted either horiiontally or vertically.
Additionally, propeller turbine are designed as
tube, bulb and rim type.
5.2 Impulse Turbine
5.2.1 Turgo Impulse~Pelton Turbine
It has one or more free jets discharging into an
aerated space and impinging on the buckets of a
runner. In Turgo impulse, the jet impinges on
several buckets continuously- wliereas only single
bucket per jet is effective at any instant in Pelton
wheel. These may be mounted horizontally or
vertically.
5.2.2 Cross Flow Turbine
It is an impulse turbine with partial air admis-
sion. These are also called Banki turbines.
5.3 Reaction Turbine
5.3.1 Francis Turbine
It has a runner with fixed vanes to which the
water enters the turbine in a radial direction
with respect to the shaft and is discharged in an
axial direction. Steel plate/concrete water supply
case or open flume are used.. Francis -turbines
ra;tsbe mounted with vertical or horizontal
5.3.2 Propeller Turbine -
It has a ru’nneI: with bl&des in which water passes
through the runner in an axial direction with
respect to the shaft. The pitch of the blades may
be fixed or movable. The conventional propeller
of Raplan ( variable pitch blade ) turbine are
mounted with a vertical,. horizontal or slant
shaft. ,.
5.3.3 Tubular Turbine . Minimum load upto which the turbine may be
It 1s hdrizontal dr slant mounted with prbpeller
runner. The generator is locited ’ outside of the
water passageway. These are equipped with fixed
or variable pitch runners and with or without
gates assemblies.
5.3.4 Bulb Tdbine.
It is a horizantal unit which have propeller
runners generally directly connected to the gene-
rator. The generator is enclosed in a water tight
enclosure ( bulb ) located m the turbine water
passageway. This is available with fixed or
variable pitch blades and with or without a
wicket gate.
5.3.5 Rim Type Turbine
It is the one in which generator rotor is mounted
on the periphery of the turbine runner blades. lt
is’ known as striaght flow turbine also, it is a
small bulb upstream, which houses the bearing.
It 1s a horizontal unit.
6 CRITERIA FOR SELECTION OF
HYDRAULIC TURBINE
6.1 Standar&iz+d Turbine
Type of turbines is selected from techno-econo-
mic considerations of generating equipment,
power house cost and relative advantages of
power generation. Most of the manufacturers
have developed standardized turbine designs
which may be effectively employed. Standard
design may lead to cheaper and quicker cons-
truction. The factors given in 6.2 to 6.10 shall
determine the type of turbine to be used for any
site conditions.
6.2 Head
Maximum net head acting on the turbine is one
of the most important criteria dictating type of
turbine to be used for the power station under
consideration. Normal range of maximum net
head with respect to power output for each ~of
the type of turbines is given in Fig. 1.
In overlapping head ranges more detailed analy-
sis need to be carried out with a view to optimize
costs for selecting exact type of turbine.
6.3 Head Variations
Performance -of the- turbine is ideal at design
head. Turbine efficiency falls at head higher and
lower than the design head. Normal range of
head variationsfor various type of turbines is
given in Table 1.
6.4 Load Variations ’
Turbine efficiency varies with load. Necessity of
operating turbine at part loads influences choice
of turbines in the overlapping head ranges.
