CH, CQ and n are functions of CP. Draw the dimensionless performance curves of the turbine on a single graph by making
the necessary scalings. (Fit the curve by using the excel program for drawing. Also give the values you used for plotting in
the table)

For a turbine design, experiments were carried out with a 40 cm diameter model which is (8+ÖN) times smaller than the prototype.
The values obtained as a result of the experiments are given in the table below. The turbine to be used in the hydroelectric power
plant with a net head of (50+2xÖN) will be designed using the values at the most efficient operating point of the model.
