In a pelton wheel, calculate the power available at the inlet and the hydraulic efficiency ofthe turbine. The wheel is having semi-circular buckets, which functions under a head of 150mand consumes 0.06 m3/s of water. The 750 mm diameter wheel turns 800 rpm. Assume thecoefficient of velocity as unity.
As a junior field engineer, you have been asked to assist a contractor in resolving the following problem.
A 4.9 kW motor and gear drive rated at 175 rpm has been shipped with the four impeller blades listed
below. The baffled rapid mix tank to which one of the impellers will be installed is 3.0 m² in volume
(1.56 m diameter and 1.56 m depth).
Assume water temperature of 10C, G= 1000s, water density = 1000 kg/m³, and motor power to water
power transfer efficiency of 80%.
Impeller options:
A. Axial flow, 3 blades, diameter = 0.48 m, N₁-1.0
B. Axial flow, 3 blades, diameter = 0.61 m, Np=1.0
C. Radial flow, 6 blades, diameter = 0.48 m, Np=6.3
D. Radial flow, 6 blades, diameter = 0.61 m, Np 6.3
Answer the following:
3. What is the rotational speed (n) in rps?
b. What is the power required in kW for impeller option A?
What is the power required in kW for impeller option C?
C.
d. What is the power transferred to the water from the selected motor in kW?
e. Which impeller should be used?…
A stationary water tank of diameter D is mounted on wheels and is placed on a nearly frictionless level surface. A smooth hole of diameter Do near the bottom of the tank allows water to jet horizontally and rearward and the water jet force propels the system forward. The water in the tank is much heavier than the tank-and-wheel assembly, so only the mass of water remaining in the tank needs to be considered in this problem. Considering the decrease in the mass of water with time, develop relations for (a) the acceleration, (b) the velocity, and (c) the distance traveled by the system as a function of time.

A nozzle directs a water stream of area A against the plate underside. The water jet splatters in the plate plane, applying an upward force against the plate. The water flow rate m. (kg/s) can be controlled. Assume that distances are short, so the velocity of the rising jet can be considered constant with height. (a) Determine the minimum mass flow rate m. min necessary to just levitate the plate and obtain a relation for the steady-state velocity of the upward moving plate for m. > m. min.
