A. A Pelton wheel is working under a head of 85 m and the rate of flow of water through
the jet is 800 lit/sec. If the bucket speed is 14 m/s and the jet is deflected through 165°,
find the power produced by the wheel and its efficiency. Take co efficient of velocity as
0.985.?
B. In an inward flow reaction turbine, the internal and external diameter are 0.85 m and
1.25 m respectively. The width of the impeller is 160 mm. The turbine is working under
a head of 12 m and hydraulic efficiency is 90 %. If the vane angle at outlet is 20° and
velocity of flow is 3 m/s. Find the discharge and power developed by the turbine.?
