4.(c) An inward flow reaction turbine has an inlet and outlet diameter of 1.5 m and 0.75 m respectively. The breadth at the inlet is 0.30 m and at the outlet is 0.40 m. At a speed of rotation of 300 rpm., the relative velocity at the entrance is 5.25 m/sec and is radial. Calculate the (i) absolute velocity at entrance and inclination to the tangent of the runner; (ii) discharge; (iii) velocity of flow at the outlet.
