Title: Provision of strength of hydrostation trash racks

Abstract

Bars of welded trash racks in front of turbines under normal operating conditions are often damaged by transverse cracks, which leads to shutdown of the turbines for repair of the racks and to the loss of production of electric energy. The authors suggest that the racks be made of bars fastened with bolt ties. Cracks are infrequent in the bolt ties demonstrating excellent fatigue resistance.
