are installed. Upon determination of the maximum operation level, studies were undertaken to determine the power to be installed. A summary of the principal results obtained may be given as follows: Installed capacity Power factor Useful water capacity Maximum power for peaks Minimum load recorded Minimum power for peaks Arithmetic mean Design head Power Generation Generation recorded in normal period Yearly mean secondary generation with power factor 0.85 2,530.5 GWH 221.4 GWH 624 MW 0.5 6,910 million m3 624 MW 83.47 m. 451.2 MW 103.45 m. 101.00 m.

The characteristics of the units are given below: Number of units Type Shaft Rotation Maximum net head Minimum net head Design load Design flow Normal speed Race speed Water level in tailrace with normal flow from fully loaded turbine Maximum turbine power Distance between units Elevation to axis of distributor Elevation to coupling flange of shaft with that of the generator Capacity: 208,000 CV with 92.00 m. Characteristics of the generator: Power factor Normal capacity Overload capacity Voltage between phases Frequency Synchronous speed 0.95 164,000 KVA 188,600 KVA 13,800 V 50 cs 136.4 rpm 189 m3/sec 4 Francis Vertical Clockwise 112.00 m. 80.70 m. 92.00 m. 193.90 m3/sec. 136.4 rpm 270.0 rpm 52.50 m.
