Abstract

The hydrodynamic power station is attached to a platform (4) with floating bodies and contains a turbine (2), a generator (5), control and switching systems. The generating station extracts electrical energy from the natural flow of water from an upper level to a lower level. A connecting tube (6) which connects the upper water level to a water flow inlet arranged at the lower level has flexible connecting elements (7) so that the generating station can vary in height with the water level.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Konstruktion im Wasserkraftwerksbau, welche zur Gänze den Betonbau für das Kraftwerksgebäude überflüssig macht.The invention relates to a construction in hydropower plant, which for Completely eliminates the need for concrete construction for the power plant building.

Bei herkömmlichen Konstruktionen ist die Turbine meist in einem je nach Fallhöhe nicht unbeträchtlichen Betonbau eingebettet und es sind beträchtliche Volumina von der Funktion des Kraftwerkes nicht erforderlich. Besonders bei größeren Höhenunterschieden in Flußmündungen, welche stark schwankenden Wasserspiegeln bei Hochwasser ausgesetzt sind, wurde ein druckdichter Betonbau bis zur 100-jährlichen Hochwassermarke erforderlich machen.In conventional designs, the turbine is usually in one depending on the head not inconsiderable concrete construction embedded and there are considerable volumes of the function of the power plant is not required. Especially with larger ones Differences in height in estuaries, which reflect strongly fluctuating water levels exposed to flooding, a pressure-tight concrete structure was built up to Require 100-year flood mark.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, die betriebserforderlichen Einheiten wie Turbine, Generator, Schaltanlage und Steuerungsanlage so zweckmäßig anzuordnen und einzuhausen, daß das Wassergefälle ausgenutzt wird, ohne jedoch über den bisher erforderlichen druckdichten Betonbau vom Saugschlauch bis zu den Lichtkuppeln fertigen zu müssen.The invention is therefore based on the object, the operating units such as turbine, generator, switchgear and control system so practical to arrange and house that the water gradient is used without, however about the previously required pressure-tight concrete construction from the suction hose to the To have to manufacture skylights.

Die Erfindung löst die Aufgabe dadurch, daß die Turbine mit den Nebenaggregaten auf einer mit Schwimmkörpern ausgerüsteten Plattform befestigt wird und diese dann mittels einer Einhausung vor der Witterung geschützt werden. Der Wasserzufluß erfolgt über ein bewegliches Rohr, welches mit dem Oberwasser in Verbindung ist. Eine Vertäuung oder Pfähle mit einem Ring an der Plattform verhindert das Abtriften. Die Konstruktion bewegt sich bei steigendem Wasserspiegel entsprechend mit, so daß auch der Wasserzufluß weiterhin gewährleistet ist. Ein weiterer großer Vorteil ist die Schonung der Landschaft durch weitgehend nicht benötigten Boden für Zulauf und Krafthaus, welche sich dann zumeist im Flußbett befinden.The invention solves the problem in that the turbine with the auxiliary units is attached to a platform equipped with floating bodies and then this be protected from the weather by means of a housing. The water inflow takes place via a movable pipe which is connected to the headwater. A mooring or piles with a ring on the platform prevent them from drifting off. The construction moves with rising water level accordingly, so that also the water flow is still guaranteed. Another big advantage is that Protection of the landscape by largely unnecessary soil for inflow and Power house, which are then mostly in the river bed.
