Solution

The hydraulic efficiency of an impulse turbine is the ratio of the actual work available at the turbine to the energy imparted to the wheel. This efficiency measures how effectively the turbine converts the energy of the water into useful work.

In an inward flow reaction turbine, the diameter of the outer periphery is twice the diameter of the inner one, and the turbine operates under a head of 20 m. The turbine has radial tis at the outlet while at the exit blades make an angle of 30° with the forward tangent. Assuming a constant radial velocity of flow and that the blade friction accounts for a dissipation of energy equivalent to 10 percent of kinetic energy at the outlet, find (i) runner velocity at the rim, (ii) hydraulic efficiency of the turbine. Assume radial discharge at outlet.
