The runner blade angles are ?2 = 82° and ?1 = 46° at the turbine inlet and outlet, respectively. The runner rotates at n. = 120 rpm. The volume flow rate at design conditions is 4.70 ×106 gpm. Irreversible losses are neglected in this preliminary analysis. Calculate the angle ?2 through which the wicket gates should turn the flow, where ?2 is measured from the radial direction at the runner inlet. Calculate the swirl angle ?1, where ?1 is measured from the radial direction at the runner outlet. Does this turbine have forward or reverse swirl?

The water enters the nozzles with an absolute pressure of 500 kPa and a speed of 5 m/s, and the nozzle outlets are exposed to atmospheric pressure and have an internal diameter of 5 cm.
