Q (2) - The following data pertain to a Francis turbine: Net head = 70 m, Speed= 700 r.p.m, Shaft power = 330 kW, Overall efficiency = 85 %, Hydraulic efficiency = 92 %, Flow ratio= 0-22, Ratio of wheel width to wheel diameter at inlet = 0.1, Outer diameter of runner = 2 x inner diameter of runner, Velocity of flow constant, Outlet discharge radial. The thickness of vanes occupies 6 percent of circumferential area of the runner. Determine: (i), Diameters of runner at inlet and outlet, (ii) Width of the wheel at inlet, (iii) Guide blade angle, and (iv) Runner vane angles at inlet and outlet.
