4.1
The bucket ofa Pelton wheel which rotates at 100 rpm deflect the jet with
diameter 50 cm through angle of 1600 while the relative velocity of the water is
reduced by 10% due to friction. The bucket speed is 0,47 of the jet. The water is
supplied from a reservoir 500 m above the nozzle, which operates with velocity
coefficient of 0,97. Losses between the reservoir and nozzle amout to head loss of
50 m. The mechanical efficieny is 92%. Find
4.1.1 the wheel diameter.
4.1.2 the Euler head.
