Novosibirsk hydropower plant, it was decided to build in October 1950 on the Ob River - one of the largest rivers in the world, it is the longest river in Russia (5140 km from the source of Irtysh), and in the catchment area occupies the 5th place on the globe (2.99 million km2).

The most favorable for the construction of hydroelectric prospectors target has been recognized by the Ob River near the village of Lower Chemy upstream from the city of Novosibirsk. The construction of the Novosibirsk hydroelectric power station and was the first pilot in Western Siberia and lasted 11 years.

And today surprised by the pace of its construction, the heroic labor hydrobuilders equated to feat. In May, 1953 the start laying the first concrete 5 goyabrya 1956 damming obi, a year later launched the first set and a half years was launched last seven hydroelectric. August 12, 1961 approved by the state commission HPP into operation.

3. The building of hydroelectric



Novosibirsk hydroelectric power station - hydroelectric power channel type. The total length of retaining structures hydropower is nearly 5 km, most of which falls on the ground of the dam, and the rest on the main concrete structures - powerhouse and the spillway dam.

Pressure front of the Novosibirsk hydroelectric form 6 waterworks:

 - Left-bank earth dam (311M),
 - Power plant building, which houses the main generating equipment (223, 6m),
 - Concrete spillway dam regulates the flow of water through hydroelectric (198, 5 m),
 - Right-bank earth dam (3044, 5th)
 - A single-line three-chamber ship gateway providing pilotage between the river and the Ob reservoir,
 - Right-bank earth dam (1023m).

In waterworks prololzheny highway and road bridges that connect the city of Novosibirsk and the two federal highways, raspolzhennye on different banks.

7. On the left bank rasolozheno open switchgear (ORU), provides delivery to consumers of electricity produced via electric network.



8. The basic design flow of water through hydroelectric target of 16,200 m3 / s, which is exactly the volume of water in the seven basins with 6 lanes for swimming.



HPP hydro formed a large reservoir. Residents call it lasokovo Novosibirsk Ob Sea. Novosibirsk Reservoir - a main battery of freshwater resources, in addition HPP regulates the level of water in the Ob. Water reservoirs are used for navigation, water supply, development of fish farms and Sel'kov.

10. The concrete spillway dam Novosibirsk GES consists of 8 spans of 20 m each. Spans separated by bulls and flat covered with wheeled gates through which regulated capacity of the spillway.



11. Maneuvering gate by two cranes. Spillway dam is an important and integral part of the HPP.



Dam spillway face is blended with the bottom of the downstream through the massive concrete and stone vodoboya apron. To quench the excess energy of the flow in the end part weir are splitters, and in part stilling two rows of concrete sticks-absorbers. Stilling plate zakanchivaaetsya concrete tooth plate to provide discharge openings for the exit of water filtration. Checkers-absorbers on the stilling plate are staggered, they have a height of 2.5 m, a trapezoidal shape with a base length of 6 m.

18. Engine room - the heart of the hydroelectric power plant. Here are 7 of hydraulic units that convert the energy of water into electrical energy. At the time of photographing was carried out modernization of one of the hydraulic units.

23. Each hydraulic unit consists of a turbine and generator.



24. The turbine is placed in the flow part. Cover insulates the turbine flow path of the turbine from the turbine hall.



25. Located above the hydro generator converts mechanical energy into electrical rotation.
Rotor speed more than 62, 5 rpm.



Start the unit by opening the guide blades and the flow of water from the volute chamber of the impeller to the impact of the flow on the blade. The pressure of the water volume on the blades rotates the rotor of the turbine and the generator. Direct current is supplied to the rotor winding forming the magnetic field. The rotor rotates and a fixed stator magnetic field of the rotor becomes variable. The output voltage of the generator 13,800 volts. At block tranformatorah it is converted to 110 and 220 kilovolts. From the main power tranformatorov energy is transferred to the ORU - this place is the link between the electricity producer and its consumer.

During his tenure, which is more than 50 years of Novosibirsk GS has developed more than 100 mrdl kWh of electricity, providing savings in the region of 28 million tons of fuel, equivalent to 10 000 coal trains. Novosibirsk region has received a powerful source of electricity, which gave impetus to its industrial development.

36. Thanks to the efforts of the professional staff is held constant work on the modernization of energy facilities. 2007 being the branch of JSC "RusHydro" Novosibirsk HPP launched extensive efforts to upgrade the main and auxiliary equipment for efficient use of water resources, thus increasing the reliability and security of energy production.
