Q-) It has been announced that a water turbine with a net head of H0 = 10m and a speed of n = 380 rpm will produce a power of Nef = 200 PS. The overall efficiency guaranteed by the manufacturer of the turbine is 76%. Answer the following questions of a customer reading this advertisement. A-)What is the type of this turbine? Is a net drop of H0 = 10m suitable for this turbine? B-)How much flow is needed for this turbine? C-)Is it ok to run the same turbine at H0 = 7.5m drop? D-)How fast should the turbine be rotated in this new fall? E-)How much flow is needed in this new fall? F-)What will be the turbine power in this new fall? (Turbine overall efficiency can be considered equal to the initial state)
