The invention belongs to
hydraulic machinery engineering, in particular to a method and a device for preventing
machine lifting of a water-
turbine generator set. The method comprises the following steps that: a
check valve type flap door M is arranged in a flat pressure passage from a rotating wheel outlet to a rotating wheel inlet of a
water turbine; when the generator set is in a normal
electricity generation state, P1 is greater than P2, the
check valve type flap door M is closed, and water in the passage can not flow downward; when the generator set is about to generate the
machine lifting, P2 is greater than P1, the flap door M is opened, the water in the passage flows upward, P2 is reduced, and P1 is increased, so the stress of the
water turbine meets a formula that the difference value of P2 and P1 is smaller than or equal to the weight G of the rotating part of the water-
turbine generator set, in the formula, P1 is downward axial water thrust, P2 is upward axial water thrust, and G is the weight of the rotating part of the water-
turbine generator set. The flat pressure passage can be realized through two or more than two passages which are uniformly distributed along the outer circumference of a rotating wheel chamber. The invention provides the method and the device, which have the advantages of simple structure, safety, reliability and capability of preventing the
machine lifting of the water-turbine generator set.
