    Key Components
    Generator – Stator
    windings thread
    through ‘fingers’ of the
    stator core laminations.
    Windings are in red,
    black components are
    the rotor and rotor
    poles.

    Key Components
    Generator – Rotor
    • Poles are wound with
    wire and a DC voltage is
    applied to generate a
    magnetic field.

    Key Components
    Wicket Gates and
    spiral case deliver
    water through the
    turbine

    Power Generation
    • Salient pole generators – All hydro-turbine generators
    utilize this style of synchronous generator which consist
    of individually wound poles.

    • Speed control critical – For synchronization to the power


    grid
    – Wicket gates (or Needles for Pelton style turbines)– Control water
    flow to regulate speed and power output
    – Governors – Provides feedback loop to control wicket gate position

    • Peaker vs Base Load – Hydros are used for either


    application due to amazing operational flexibility.
