9. An inward flow reaction turbine works under a head of (22.5 m). The external and internal diameters of the runner are (1.35 and 1 m) respectively. The angle of guide vanes is (15%) and the moving vanes are radial at inlet. Radial velocity of flow through the runner is constant and there is no velocity of whirl at outlet. Determine the speed of the runner in rpm and the angle of vane at outlet. If the turbine develops (375 kW), find the specific speed. Neglect friction losses. [Ans. 206.5 rpm, 19º53', 81.6]
