Assessment of performance of turbo-alternators at the Jebba Hydroelectric Power Station in Nigeria from 2005 – 2014

The Nigerian power system consists of several sets of aged turbo-alternators (TAs) associated with frequent failures and limited installed capacity. This paper presents the results of a study of the performance of the turbo-alternators at one of the most important power stations in the country. The energy conversion characteristic of each of the turbo-alternators is studied by comparing the electrical power output with the total hydro-energy available on a daily basis. Similarly the availability was examined by generating the stochastic sequence of up-times for each TA. The results indicate th…
