Pelton wheel has a mean bucket speed of 10 m/s with a jet of water flowing at the rate of 700 lps under a head of 30 m. The buckets deflect the jet through an angle of 160°. Calculate the power given by water to the runner and the hydraulic efficiency of the turbine. Assume the coefficient of nozzle as 0.98.

Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.
