1. A reaction turbine works at 450 rpm under a head of 120 m. Its diameter at inlet is 1.2 m and the flow area is 0.4 m2. The angle made by the absolute and relative velocities at inlet are 20° and 60° respectively with the tangential velocity. Determine (i) the discharge through the turbine (ii) power developed (ii) efficiency. Assume radial discharge at outlet.

Problems:
1. A reaction turbine works at 450 rpm under a head of 120 m. Its diameter at inlet
is 1.2 m and the flow area is 0.4 m2. The angle made by the absolute and
relative velocities at inlet are 20° and 60° respectively with the tangential
velocity. Determine
(i) the discharge through the turbine
(ii) power developed (i) efficiency.
Assume radial discharge at outlet.
2. A Francis turbine has inlet wheel diameter of 2 m and outlet diameter of 1.2 m.
The runner runs at 250 rpm and water flows at 8 cumecs. The blades have a
constant width of 200 mm. If the vanes are radial at inlet and the discharge is
radially outwards at exit, make calculations for the angle of guide vane at inlet
and blade angle at outlet
