Q: 01a- A Pelton wheel working under a head of 500 meters, produces 13000 KW at 430rpm. If the efficiency of
the wheel is 85%, determine followings & assume any missing data;

(i) Discharge of turbine

(ii) Diameter of wheel
(iii) Diameter of Nozzle

Q: 01b- Write a note on governing of impulse turbine?

Q: 01c- A centrifugal pump delivers 30 liters of discharge water per second to a height of 10 meter through a
pipe of 50 meter length of 75mm dia. If the overall efficiency of the pump is 75%, find the power required to
drive the pump. (Take f=0.01).

Q: 01d- An inward flow reaction turbine has inner and outer diameter of the wheel as 1-meter and 2-
meter respectively. The water enters the vane at an angle of 20 o and leaves vane radially. If velocity of
flow remains constant (10 m/sec) and speed of the wheel be 300 rpm. Find the vane angle at inlet and
outlet.
Q: 01e- A Pelton wheel has a mean bucket speed of 15m/sec with a jet of water impinging with a
velocity of 40m/sec and a discharge of 450 lit./sec. If the bucket deflects jet of water through an angle
of 165o. Find power generated by the wheel.
Q: 01f- A Pelton wheel having seni-circular buckets and working under a head of 140 meters, is running
at 600 r.p.m.Discharge through the nozzle is 700 liters per second and diameter of the wheel is 750 mm.
Find:
(i) Power available at nozzle
(ii) Efficiency of wheel if coefficient of velocity is 0.98.
Q: 01g- A 50-mm dia jet moving with 15 m/sec impinges in a series of vanes with a velocity of 6m/sec.
Find;
(i) Force exerted by jet
(ii) Work done by the jet
(iii) Efficiency of the jet
Q: 01h- A single acting reciprocating pump with plunger dia of 200 mm and stroke length of 300mm .
The suction pipe is of 100 mmm dia and 8 meter long . The pump draws water from 4 meter below the
cylinder axis at 30 r.p.m. Find the pressure heads at the piston;
(i) At the beginning of the suction stroke
(ii) In the middle of the suction stroke
(iii) At the end of the suction stroke
Q: 02-

Q: 02c- Explain the important components of Reaction and impulse turbine.
