A Francis radial-flow hydroturbine (inward) has the following dimensions: r2=2.00 m, r₁=1.30 m, b2=0.85 m, and b1=2.10 m. The runner blade angles are ß2= 66° and B1= 18.5° at the turbine inlet and outlet, respectively. The runner rotates at N=100 rpm. The volume flow rate at design conditions is 80 m³/s. Irreversible losses are neglected in this preliminary analysis. Calculate the angle a2 through which the wicket gates should turn the flow, where az is measured from the radial direction at the runner inlet. Calculate the swirl angle ai, where an is measured from the radial direction at the runner outlet. Predict the power output (MW) and required net head (m).

3. Water is supplied to a town through a gravity main, 0.6m in diameter and 50 km long, across an undulating ground from the headworks to the service reservoir in the town. The pipe off-take at the headworks is at a reduced level (RL) +480 m and the maximum water level of the reservoir is at RL +380 m. The lowest ground level of the mains is at RL +280 m at a point 25 km from the take-off. It is desired to increase the current supply to the town by 30%. Determine the distance you would lay a duplicate pipe of the same diameter. State all assumptions made.
