A Francis turbine has an inlet diameter of 2.0 m and an outlet diameter of 1.2 m. The breadth of the blades is constant at 0.2 m. The runner rotates at a speed of 250 rpm with a discharge of 8.0 m/s. The vanes are radial at the inlet and the discharge is radially outwards at the outlet. Calculate the angle of guide vane at the inlet and blade angle at the outlet.
