Example 2.51. A water turbine delivering 10 M" power is to be tested with the help of a geometrically similar 1:8 model, which runs at the same speed as the prototype. Find the power developed by the model assuming the efficiencies of the model and the prototype are equal. (ii) Find the ratio of the heads and the ratio of mass flow rates between the prototype and the model. [PTU
