    This document outlines an experiment on an impulse turbine. It describes measuring the velocity of a water jet using a flow meter, calculating the angular velocity of the turbine wheel based on the jet velocity and wheel radius, and determining the turbine speed factor. The purpose is to study the performance of an impulse turbine and compare results to theoretical equations.
