About Kaplan Turbine Trainer

KAPLAN TURBINE TRAINER

The unit is used to investigate the characteristic behavior of a simple-regulated Kaplan turbine during operation.
The trainer is provided with a closed water circuit with tank, submersible pump and throttle valve tbr adjusting the flow rate.
The angle of attack of the rotor, and thus the power output of the turbine, is changed by adjusting the guide vanes.
The turbine is loaded with a wear-free eddy current brake.
The speed is captured by means of an inductive, non-contact position sensor at the turbine shaft.
For determining the turbine power, the eddy current brake is equipped with a force sensor for torque measurement.
The pressures at the inlet and outlet of the turbine, the temperature and the flow rate are recorded with sensors.
The recorded measured values are displayed digitally and processed further in a PC.
The PC is used to calculate the power output data of complete with all required accessories.
The examined turbine and to represent them in characteristic curves.

FAQs of Kaplan Turbine Trainer:

Q: How does the Kaplan Turbine Trainer help in engineering education?

A: This trainer allows students and researchers to explore the working principles and performance characteristics of a simple-regulated Kaplan turbine. By adjusting parameters such as blade pitch and speed, users gain practical understanding of hydraulic power generation and turbine behavior under different operating conditions.

Q: What output parameters can be measured and displayed during a test?

A: The trainer provides digital and analog display of key metrics, including turbine output, efficiency, flowrate, head, and operating speed. Measurements are gathered using precise sensors and can be logged through an optional computer interface for advanced data analysis.

Q: When should the safety features like overload protection and emergency stop be used?

A: Overload protection and the emergency stop are built-in for laboratory safety. They should be engaged immediately in cases of abnormal operation, excessive load, or unexpected system faults to prevent equipment or user harm.

Q: Where is the Kaplan Turbine Trainer most effectively utilized?

A: This equipment is ideal for hydraulic laboratories within engineering educational institutions, research centers, and renewable energy training programs, enabling practical demonstrations and hands-on investigations across a variety of water energy topics.

Q: What is the process for adjusting flow rate and impeller pitch during experiments?

A: Operators can control water flow using the gate valve and the vanes, while the impeller blade pitch is adjusted either prior to running the test or dynamically as needed. These features allow for the simulation of real-world variable load scenarios and optimization studies.

Q: How does the trainer benefit renewable energy training?

A: By simulating the operation of a real Kaplan turbine, the trainer facilitates understanding of modern water-based energy solutions. Students and trainees can visualize the effects of design adjustments and renewable energy integration in an interactive, tangible way.
