HYDRO GENERATORS

Outline of Toshiba Hydro Generators

Boasting the longest history in Japan for this type of equipment, TOSHIBA's first production of hydro generators dates back to over 80 years ago. Our endless research efforts throughout these many decades have created the largest installation records and maintained TOSHIBA as a top-ranking name in this field. The number of hydro generators already installed and planned for near-future installation exceeds 1,200 units, their total capacity 30,OOOMVA. In terms of unit capacity, including the world's largest generator of 805MVA, more than 100 units exceeding 100MVA have served our clients in a variety of 40 different models. Export of TOSH I BA hydro generators cover U.S.A., Canada, Central and South America, Africa, Southeast Asia, Europe, and other countries and continents. With units now in production for scheduled export included, we have supplied world markets with 160 units-totaling 15,OOOMVA, enabling us to proudly proclaim "TOSHIBA-a world leader in heavy-electric technology." In 1940, five 100MVA-150rpm generators were completed at our Tsurumi works. These units, later installed in the Suiho

Power Station (Korea), attained fame then as the world's largest-capacity hydro generators. Since that time until around 1960 was an era when 100MVA generators were predominantly produced and installed. The year 1965 further triggered and accelerated a demand for even largercapacity units. At present, as displayed in Fig. 1 below, unit capacities are increased up to 500 800M V A. Topographical conditions at powergenerating sites and operation requirements generally determine the optimum ratings/specifications of hydro generators. Specifically, determination of unit capacity and rated speed depends on the same conditions. And these requirements imposed by the hydro-power system or the electrical power system influence the degree of difficulty in designing and manufacturing the most appropriate generating system. TOSHIBA has long been engaged in producing not only hydro generators, but also hydraulic turbines. We have successfully attained the capability of solving most flexibly various technical problems related to hydraulic power generating plants.

During the course of the trend demanding larger unit capacities, the need for highspeed and low-speed equipment has also increased, the types often requiring more difficult design and production technique. Possessing rich experience and achievements in this area as well, TOSHIBA is able to handle with confidence any new construction requirements for hydro generators of high- and low-speed types. High-speed, large-capacity generators This type of generator is widely adopted, both in domestic and in overseas markets, as reversible generator-motors for many pumped-storage power plants. In 1975 TOSHIBA installed one 265MVA/277MW-400rpm unit at the Ohira Power Station (Japan), in 1977 we completed factory production of two 315MVA/310MW-429rpm units for the Bajina Basta Power Station (Yugoslavia), and in 1979 we installed six 220MVA/ 214MW-514rpm units at the Okuyoshino Power Station (Japan). Regarding the generator-motors for the Okuyoshino P.S., the static variable frequency converter start was successfully incorporated as the first adopted in Japan. Currently, two 335MVA/308MW429rpm units, are under production for the Tamahara Power Station (Japan). Low-speed, large-capacity generators Three records, the first completed in 1969, the second in 1974 and the third in 1979, invited world attention as the largestcapacity machines produced during those time. The first is one 250MVA/250MW225rpm unit for the Kisenyama Power Station (Japan), the second is two 333MVA/415,OOOHP225rpm units for the Bear Swamp Power Station (U.S.A.) and the third is two 367MVA/330MW-214rpm units for the Shintakasegawa Power Station (Japan). Today, the world's largest-capacity record as air-cooled machine is 805MVA112.5rpm generators for the Guri No.2 Power Station (Venezuela). In 1978, we TOSHIBA as a leader of Consorcio JWG completed the production of this first 805MVA unit at our Tsurumi Works.

Organization of Total Quality Assurance System


MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING SECTION is responsible for the development and improvement of manufacturing techniques, economical planning of manufacturing facilities, designing of manufacturing tools, problem solutions of production lines, determination of manufacturing procedures, and preparing process instructions and check sheets for each work station. MANUFACTURING DEPARTMENT transforms designs and materials into quality products in accordance with the drawings, manufacturing procedures, and process instructions. Further, MANUFACTURING DEPARTMENT is responsible for operating and controlling the production processes to achieve the predetermined Acceptable Quality Level (AQL). Whenever any deviation from AQL is detected in each process, MANUFACTURING DEPARTMENT must transmit detailed information regarding such deviation to MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING SECTION and QUALITY ASSURANCE DEPARTMENT, not only for corrective action, but also as preventive action to minimize recurrence of similar shortcomings. Each person at a work station must fill out the corresponding check sheets upon the completion of each job and forward them to QUALITY ASSURANCE DEPARTMENT to ensure a constant monitoring quality level of the products. Check sheets are signed by authorized personnel. QUALITY ASSURANCE DEPARTMENT, whose responsibility is to measure and judge the quality levels of products, is an independent department. All quality data are returned to DESIGNING SECTION. Consequently, Design Data Books are continuously renewed in response to new information resulting from tests and inspections, field service experience, manufacturing processes, etc. This permits manufacturing various products one after another with higher quality and reliability.

ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT shall review and transmit CUSTOMER's quality requirements and specifications for generators, control equipment, and associated apparatus to DESIGNING SECTION upon the receipt of an order. Furthermore, ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT shall transmit information on any special requirements to DESIGNING SECTION, MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING SECTION and QUALITY ASSURANCE DEPARTMENT, and other concerned on DR-A meeting. DESIGNING SECTION reviews CUSTOMER's requirements and specifications, translates these into

designs and prepares necessary drawings, detailed specifications including special manufacturing processes such as welding, heat treating, and nondestructive and performance tests. DESIGNING SECTION conveys these documents to MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING SECTION, MATERIAL PURCHASE DEPARTMENT, and QUALITY ASSURANCE DEPARTMENT. For preproduction quality evaluations, DRB meeting is held in the early stage of fundamental designs, and DR-C meeting is held at the end of detailed designs to confirm whether each product quality fulfills CUSTOMER's requirements and specifications.
