Hydro generator basics Application and design Getting an overview of generators and the process of electro-mechanical energy conversion, is a key step to gain a global understanding of hydroelectric energy production. In this course participants receive a basic overview on hydropower generators theoretical, functional and operating principle. The theoretical concepts are underlined by case studies of our 150 years of experience as a special machines manufacturer. After participating, attendees will understand the functional processes in hydro generators with different application layout and they will get a basic insight in the machine design process. voith.com Date and location of the session 2019-03-28 from 08:30 to 16:30 Windhoek, Namibia
