Water flows from a lake through a 300-m-long pipe having a diameter of 300 mm and a friction factor of f = 0.035. The flow from the pipe passes through a 60-mm-diameter nozzle and is used to drive the Pelton wheel, where the bucket deflection angles are 145 ∘. Neglect minor losses. Determine the power produced when the wheel is turning under optimum conditions. Determine torque produced when the wheel is turning under optimum conditions.

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.
