HYDROMATRIX An innovative way to hydropower generation

Conventional
6+ m

HYDROMATRIX

1.3+ m

An array (Matrix) of small turbines instead of conventional sized turbines Best suited for low head sites with existing dam and weir structures Most economical in larger numbers -> not a typical small hydro application

ANDRITZ HYDRO 2012

www.andritz.com

HYDROMATRIX Application criteria

Available plant discharge from ~ 60 m/s Available head from 2 m up to 25 m Minimum submergence 1.5 m below tailwater Unit output from 100 kW up to ~ 1500 kW Grid connection in close vicinity Structure available & suitable for HYDROMATRIX

ANDRITZ HYDRO 2012

HYDROMATRIX Advantages
Use of existing weir structures No major civil construction > less cost Little excavation & no coffer dams > less geological risk No additional land usage -> environmentally friendly Existing river flow pattern can be maintained HYDROMATRIX Modules removeable at flood conditions Standardized modular concept

Compressed project schedule

High availability & easy maintenance

HYDROMATRIX Influences on Dam Structure

Loads on dam Horizontal dam loads

Statical loads less than without HYDROMATRIX

Dynamical loads identical Vertical dam loads Additional weight through modules

Additional weight through new crane and trash rack cleaning machine
Civil works Anchors for guiding rails, supports and platforms Protection pipes, cable trays

HYDROMATRIX Differences HYDROMATRIX vs StrafloMatrixTM

HYDROMATRIX
Simple Bulb Design
Synchronous or Asynchronous Operation Perm. Magnets or Conventional Rotor Winding Longer, Heavier than StrafloMatrix

StrafloMatrix
Generator outside of flow (straight flow)
Synchronous Operation Permanent Magnet Technology Shorter, Less Weight No PF Compensation required

PF Compensation (for asynchronous version only)

HYDROMATRIX Operation Aspects

Maintenance intervals
TG-Units: Annual Oil Inspection / Change

BOP Equipment:
According to maintenance schedule UW - Cables: Change every 10-12 years

Accessibility
Easy access to all maintenance-relevant components without disturbance of overall plant operation

Expected life time

Identical to conventional hydropower concepts
