Pelton wheel Study guides, Study notes & Summaries

Hydroelectric Problems 1.0 Find the torque and power transferred to the buckets of an impulse wheel with α= 00, β= 1600, κ= 0.44, ∅=0.46 , Cv = 0.98, a jet diameter of 10 inches and a pitch diam eter of 10ft. Find also, the hydraulic efficiency, and expressed as a percentage of the total head, find the head loss in bucket friction, the energy head loss at discharge and the head loss in the nozzle. 2.0 A tangential turbine develops 7200 hp at 200 rpm under a head of 790 ft at an efficiency o...

Hello all.....Here I am providing my hand written notes of TURBINES for Engineering 1st year students. This topic belongs to a subject of ELEMENTS OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING. This is a class notes and it is sufficient for exam preparation also. This notes cover topics of Turbine and it's classification; Impulse turbine; reaction turbine; differences between Impulse and Reaction turbines; Open cycle gas turbine; Closed cycle gas turbine; differences between open and closed cycle gas turbines; Pel...
