. The Street railway journal . r, see Figs. 5and 6, is conducted by two riveted pipesof 225-ft. length and 8-ft. 3-in. diameter,and at an incline of 45 degs. to the tur-bine house. Each pipe there divides intotwo parts, the branches leading to theturbine of 2000 hp each. The tail-racehas a length of 330 ft. and a width of66 ft. The power station contains threeturbo-generator groups of 2000 hp fourth unit will be erected when neces-sity arises, and will have a capacity of from 3000 hp to 4000 hp. The Francis turbine, supplied byGanz & Company, is used, and runs at a speed of 150 r. p. m.

The Francis turbine, supplied byGanz & Company, is used, and runs at a speed of 150 r. p. m.,under a net head of water of 100 ft., which at high water, whenthe water is discharged back, may be reduced to 89 ft., or evenin exceptional cases to 86 ft. The turbines are of the inward-flow type, and the water is DrA = Generator. MR = Motor for regulating speed ofturbine.
