Derive an expression for the blade efficiency in reaction turbine that has four stages by means of flow and blade velocities with exit and entrance angles of moving blades if: the nozzle angle equal to twice the exit angle of moving blade, while the outlet relative velocity is equal to absolute velocity.If the efficiency of any stage is 90%, what is the total efficiency of this turbine
[5] A Francis turbine operates at its maximum efficiency point at h0 = 0.94, corresponding to a power specific speed of 0.9 rad. The effective head across the turbine is 160 m and the speed required for electrical generation is 750 rev/min. The runner tip speed is 0.7 times the spouting velocity, the absolute flow angle at runner entry is 70 deg from the radial direction and the absolute flow at runner exit is without swirl. Assuming there are no losses in the guide vanes and the mechanical efficiency is 100%, determine (i) the turbine power and the volume flow rate; (ii) the runner diameter; (iii) the magnitude of the tangential component of the absolute velocity at runner inlet; (iv) the axial length of the runner vanes at inlet.
In a trial run, the De Laval steam turbine at Oman Power Plant rotates at 3000 rpm. The steam is issued from the nozzle at 400 m/s and the nozzle angle is 20o. The blade speed ratio is 0.41and the friction loss in the blade channel is 15%of the kinetic energy corresponding to the relative velocity at the inlet to the blades. As a turbine engineer at that station, how do you determine the (i) power developed by the turbine for a flow rate of 10 kg/s and (ii) suitable inlet and outlet angles for the blades when axial thrust is zero. Also, how would you determine the size of the turbine wheel required? Draw a suitable velocity diagram.
