Description
Synchronous hydrogenerators are an integrated solution for small hydroelectric power plants. Each machine is designed to the parameters of the specific turbine and the operating modes of the station: critical project data are taken into account to ensure maximum output at low loads and reliability over the whole service life. The generators are produced at the plant in Reinosa (Cantabria, Spain), where the company has manufactured electrical machines since the 1930s. Range. The power is up to 45 MW and the voltage from 150 V to 15 kV. The generators are compatible with all types of hydraulic turbines and are produced in horizontal and vertical versions; the design is adapted to any number of poles and any rotational speed. All types of cooling are available, with rolling or sleeve bearings, individual terminal boxes and anchor mounting, and a wide range of additional equipment; the rotor moment of inertia is determined by the requirements of the installation (regulation and stability conditions). Design. Winding insulation is made with VPI (vacuum pressure impregnation) and resin-rich technologies, and the rotor has a robust design. The company also produces submersible generators for operation directly in the river bed and permanent-magnet excited generators (more than 70 MW supplied): combined with power electronics, they form a generation system without turbine speed regulation, which increases the output of limited hydro resources. Experience. In total more than 3 GW of generators for small hydropower plants have been supplied in dozens of countries, from Norway (about 307 MVA), Turkey (540 MVA) and Vietnam (352 MVA) to Nepal, the Philippines, Chile and Colombia; projects include the Calheta III hydropower plant (37.5 MW, Madeira), Kashimbila (48 MVA, Nigeria) and Niksar (45 MVA, Turkey). The company provides support during installation and commissioning, and carries out restoration and modernization of generators at existing stations. Applications are new and reconstructed small and medium hydropower plants, diversion and dam stations, and submersible installations.
