Question about turbine.

vendredi 19 septembre 2014

The hydraulic efficiency of a turbine (let pelton turbine) is given by - (power developed by runner or shaft power)/(water power)



shaft power is - (mass flow rate)*(Vw1+Vw2)*u



water power is - density*g*Q*H



My question is that the pressure head is converted into kinetic energy in nozzle then we should use water power = 0.5*m*V^2

why we use that formula.



my teacher said that energy input to runner= 0.5*m*V^2

and energy input to whole turbine system = density*g*Q*H

please explain.
