energy sources like solar and wind energy will see increased use to replace traditional sources. One of these sources‚ wind energy‚ is seeing a rise in development because it is a source of renewable energy that is both sustainable and poses minimal costs to the environment. Wind power has been around for many centuries‚ and has steadily developed over the last 100 years. The first major usage of wind power in the United States was between 1870-1930 when farmers used wind energy to pump water (Union

advantage. Airflow control is also better with this arrangement. Task P8 Impulse turbine- these turbines change the direction of flow of a high velocity fluid jet the resulting impulse spins the turbine and leaves the fluid flow with diminished kinetic energy. Reaction turbines- these turbines develop torque by reacting to the fluid pressure or weight. The pressure of the fluid changes as it passes through the turbine rotor blades. Task P8 B) Creep is permanent growth over time of component

HYDRAULIC TURBINES Meaning of the term ‘Hydraulic’ • The working fluid is a liquid or a gas?? ANSWER – WORKING FLUID IS A LIQUID. TURBINE – WORKING PRINCIPLE • In turbines the pressure energy is converted into mechanical energy(which is further converted into electrical energy). WORKING PRINCIPLE OF PUMPS it is just the reverse of the above‚ that is‚ the mechanical energy is converted into pressure energy. OUR FOCUS OF STUDY • Working of various types of hydraulic turbines. • Working

Premium Pelton wheel Water turbine
A Pelton wheel‚ also called a Pelton turbine‚ is one of the most efficient types of water turbines. It was invented by Lester Allan Pelton (1829-1908) in the 1870s‚ and is an impulse machine‚ meaning that it uses Newton’s second law to extract energy from a jet of fluid.
