Construction & Design Details-
The Pelton turbine is mounted on a rigid support frame designed to locate securely on the hydraulic bench top channel. The transparent Plexiglass housing allows continuous observation of the turbine wheel, spear nozzle, and jet interaction. The adjustable spear valve provides smooth and repeatable control of jet diameter. Water discharged from the turbine returns to the base unit tank, enabling recirculation in a closed water circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What type of turbine is demonstrated using this apparatus?
It demonstrates the operating principle of a Pelton wheel impulse turbine.
Q2. How is the discharge controlled during experiments?
Discharge is controlled using an adjustable spear valve that varies the jet diameter.
Q3. Can turbine efficiency be determined using this setup?
Yes, turbine efficiency can be calculated using measured speed, torque, discharge, and head.
Q4. How is turbine speed measured?
Turbine speed can be measured using a non contact tachometer, supplied optionally.
Q5. What water supply is required for operation?
The apparatus operates using a hydraulic bench with closed water circuit or a laboratory water connection.
