ANDRITZ Experts in hydropower
ANDRITZ Experts in hydropower Working Range of micro hydropower
ANDRITZ Atro Archimedean Screw Archimedes invented the screw pump 2300 years ago ANDRITZ Atro designs and builds screw pumps for decades
ANDRITZ Atro hydropower screw as a turbine ANDRITZ Atro invented the hydropower screw 15 years ago The genius principle is turned around The hydrodynamic screw is placed inclined in flood direction in the river The water flow makes the screw rotating. The energy is given to a generator via a gearbox
ANDRITZ Atro hydropower screw Do you want to invest into renewable energy? Do you have problems with the interconnected grid, because there is none? because the power lines are to weak?
ANDRITZ Atro hydropower screw Do you have nearby a natural river flow with currents? an owerflow over an existing dam? an irrigation channel? old unused hydropower site? a clean water outlet of sewage treatment plants?.
ANDRITZ Atro hydropower screw Perfect micro hydropower utilisation at sites with small heads from 1 to 10 m at sites with flows from 0,25 to 10 cbm/sec. => Power output up to 500 kw at sites with concerns about fish mortality with high efficiency especially at partial load with small investments and maintanence costs
ANDRITZ Atro hydropower screw Main Components Scoar screen Shut down device Drive unit with gearbox and generator Control cabinet: AHC - ANDRITZ hydro screw controller Archmimedean Screw with upper and lower bearing incl. splash plates and different types of troughs
ANDRITZ Atro hydropower screw Advantages No danger of blockage due to big passages No need of expensive fine screening Very fish friendly Very low wear due to slow turning screw
ANDRITZ Atro hydropower screw Advantages Enviromental friendly, because of little effects in the surrounding world Minimal civil works No deep excavating Less regulations, smaller process of permission
ANDRITZ Atro hydropower screw At a glance High efficient turbine for small heads 1-10 m Flows from 0,25 10 cbm/sec. Sites with concerns about fish mortality Trouble free operation at low maintanence costs Small investments in machinery and civil works
Pumps as Turbines Series ACT / FPT / HPT Content Applications, Performance Range Design and Function Advantages References Performance data: Head: up to 80 m Flow: up to 800 l/s with ACT up to 6000 l/s with FPT HPT: Head up to 350m Flow up to 250 l/s
Pumps as Turbines Series ACT / FPT / HPT Applications Island stations for mountain refugees Drinking water turbines Waste water turbines Reserved flow turbines Micro power stations with supply to grid Energy recovery turbines in industrial applications Small pump storage power stations
Pumps as Turbines Series ACT / FPT / HPT Advantages Wear resistant execution Little and easy maintenance Impeller with large free passage Low problems with clogging Direct- or belt drive / gearbox possible Serial production, short delivery time Disadvantage: Pumps have only one optimum duty point Our philosophy: Use only in applications, where pump fits perfect as turbine!
Pumps as Turbines Series ACT / FPT / HPT Control of turbine Casing works as rigid guide vane, only one optimum point available Control possibilities: a) Throttle control surplus flow: by-pass b) Variable speed control shifts optimum efficiency point
Pumps as Turbines Series ACT / FPT / HPT Main Components Turbine -wear resistant components LV-switchbox -current distribution -fuses -control unit -battery Turbine - Rigid design - Speed optimized selection Control valve...for control, niveau regulation and emergency shut down or as closing valve during stand still. Switch cabinet - current distribution, fuses, control, battery and warning systems Generator - asynchron (parallel to grid) or synchron (island drive) Control valve -with 24VDC drive -for flow control and -emergency shut down Generator Asynchron (parallel to grid) Synchron (island drive / off grid)
