A two-jet Pelton wheel is required to produce 2MW power with 400rpm. The diameter of the wheel is 1.5m. Gross head measure from the water surface in reservoir to the nozzle is 200m. Head loss in the penstock and nozzle is 10% and the deflected velocity by the bucket reduced 10%. If the deflected angle is 1650, determine;

Problem 5 A Pelton turbine has six nozzles (see the figure to the right, credit Wikipedia). Each of the nozzles has an outlet velocity of 100 m/s and an exit area of 0.05 m². If the radius of the turbine is 3 meters, and the rotational velocity is 20 rad/s, what is the power generated by the turbine?

1. As a junior city engineer of a municipality, you are tasked to design the specifications of the pump with 3650 cu.m/day. The water source in the municipality is from an open reservoir and will supply to a pressure tank that will distribute to the municipality. open 4l Pressure reservoir Tank 70 m 15 m Pump Determine the following specifications of the pump and piping system (assume fluid stagnation at the pump). Velocity head at pt.1 to 2 if the diameter of the pipe is a.) 200 mm b.) Suction pressure of the pump in kPa (Pressure at pt. 2). c.) Velocíty head at pt.3 to 4 if the diameter of the pipe is 150 mm d.) Discharge pressure of the pump in kPa (Pressure at pt. 4). Assume atmospheric pressure at the pump. If an air vent is installed at the pipe just right before the pressure tank with diameter of 20 mm, what is the velocity of discharge in m/s? The height of the pressure tank is 12 m, what is the flowrate in cu.m/hr at pt.5 if the diameter of the pipe is 150 mm? e.) f.)
