Tests Performed on Hydraulic Turbines at Commissioning or after Capital Repairs. Part I. Tests Per-formed on a 78-MW Francis Turbine

Abstract

The paper presents the tests recommended by the standards to be per-formed on a hydraulic turbine on commissioning, after repair works or refurbishment, and the manner in which these tests were executed in a hydro power plant equipped with a 75-MW Francis turbine and the results obtained.
