Refurbishment

At Scotta Turboinštitut, our approach to refurbishment projects includes a comprehensive process to ensure optimal performance and reliability of hydropower turbines:

• Pre-feasibility studies of existing hydropower generating units to assess potential and constraints.
• Detailed analysis of turbine parameters to identify faults, deterioration, and opportunities for improvement, with recommended corrective procedures.
• Turbine redesign and model development tailored for refurbished units.
• Model testing of both original and redesigned turbines to validate performance.
• Execution of refurbishment projects for all types and sizes of turbines, ensuring state-of-the-art results.

We employ advanced software tools for a wide range of analyses, including:

• Numerical simulations (CFD)
• Transient flow analysis
• Stress-strain and fatigue analysis
• Modal and acoustic analysis
• CAD design

Our integrated methodology ensures that refurbished turbines meet the highest standards of efficiency, safety, and long-term reliability.
