In a Peloton turbine, the wheel diameter is 2 m and the denecting angle of the water is 162". The jet diameter is 165 mm. the water pressure at the nozzle is 1000 kpa and the discharge correction is not necessary. The wheel rotates at 320 rpm. Neglecting friction, find; (a) the power developed by the wheel, (b) turbine efficiency and (c) wasted water energy
