About this file

This document is a technical specifications file for the Lower Granite Turbine Intake Gate Hydraulic System Upgrade project, solicitation number W912EF25RA010. The technical specifications provide a comprehensive project table of contents spanning multiple divisions, including general requirements, existing conditions, concrete, metals, thermal and moisture protection, finishes, special construction, integrated automation, and more. The specifications detail the requirements for upgrading the hydraulic system, covering aspects such as support beams, lifting devices, seismic restraints, electrical equipment, and hydraulic power systems.

The project involves replacing and upgrading various components of the turbine intake gate hydraulic system, with specific focus on hydraulic cylinders, power units, control stations, piping, valves, and associated equipment. Key technical requirements include detailed specifications for materials, fabrication, testing, installation, and quality control, with emphasis on precise engineering standards, load-bearing capacities, welding procedures, safety protocols, and comprehensive documentation. The technical specifications provide explicit guidelines for contractors, covering everything from shop drawings and product data to in-shop testing, on-site installation, and operational testing of the hydraulic system components.

The Contract drawings indicate the general arrangement and conceptual design of the hydraulic power system and other pertinent features.

Finalize the design with selected hydraulic components and equipment in accordance with the requirements of this SECTION and with ISO 4413 .

1.4.1 Definitions

The following terms are used throughout this specification SECTION:

a. High Pressure - That part of the system between the outlet of each pump and the pressure side of the single action gate cylinders, including, but not limited to: All piping between pump outlets, supply distribution header, control manifolds, and all piping and hoses connected to the high pressure side of the cylinder.

b. Low Pressure - That part of the system between the return side of the single action cylinders to the pump inlet, including but not limited to: all piping and hoses between the the return side of the cylinder and the return header, return header piping, oil storage tanks, and pump supply piping.

c. Normal Operating Pressure - The pressure required to raise the gate under balanced head conditions.

d. System Rated Pressure - Maximum pressure in the system during regular operation. Pressure used for selecting catalog/off-the-shelf components.

1.4.2 System Summary

The following paragraphs provide a brief narrative of how the hydraulic power system is configured and operated. It is a summary and is not an inclusive description of all features or operating conditions.

The intake gate hydraulic system operates the intake gates for the 6 main

SECTION 35 05 40.14 26 Page 13 units. Each main unit has 3 intake gates. Intake gates are supported in each gate slot by a support beam and operated with one cylinder. The intake gates are connected to the cylinders by stub piston rods and couplings. All intake gates, support beams, stub shafts, and cylinders are interchangeable.

A centralized hydraulic power unit (HPU) is shared by all units.

Hydraulic fluid is distributed through a system of two headers. A hydraulic fluid reservoir tank is positioned on the intake deck and provides make-up fluid and storage capacity. Control stations at each unit are used to control the gates for that unit. Gates are raised using hydraulic pressure from the HPU and lower under gravity. Flow control valves at the control stations limit the closing speed.

The gates are typically operated using the local controls at the control stations. This Contract adds remote control, to the powerhouse control room, for an automated closure scheme.

Under normal operating conditions, the gates are suspended in the raised position using pressurized oil. The pressurization pump automatically activates based off pressure switches to ensure the gates do not drift under gravity.

1.4.3 Design Parameters

The principal design parameters for the hydraulic power system are as follows and were developed at the minimum operating temperature and utilizing the hydraulic fluid as specified:

a. System Rated Pressure: 3000 psi

b. Normal Operating Pressure: 2000 psi

c. Load Due to Crane Maximum Motor Torque: 568 kip

d. Minimum Cylinder Stroke: 47 feet - 4.75 inches, contractor to verify

e. Cylinder Piston Area (high pressure side): 143.5 square inches, minimum

f. Cylinder Maximum Outer Diameter: 26 inches

g. Lowering Flow Rate: To be determined based off cylinder dimensions and speed listed below.

h. Raising flow rate: 13 gpm, per gate, minimum

i. Lowering Speed:

1) Normal: 12 feet per minute (+/- 10%)

2) Cushion Zones: 7 feet per minute (+/- 10%)

3) Safety Orifice: 40 feet per minute (maximum)

j. Minimum Ambient Temperature: 0 degrees F

The hoist load due to a maximum motor event is 568 kips. Note this load case only applies to the load path through the piston rod and hoist locking device when removing the cylinder gate assembly from the slot and is not applicable to the components.
