Why pelton turbine is used for high head?
pelton wheel is used for high heat because it has less loses....n more efficiency... pelton wheel is used for high heat because it has less loses....n more efficiency... eeeeeee.com parama boka dheni chudaka
Applications and uses of pelton wheel turbine?
Pelton wheel could be used to lift water from a lower source (lake or something) to pour into a high place. Another use, it could be used to dig into the earth, the wheel have the shape of a milling cutter, it can open channels in the ground or something. It could also be used to measure the speed of a fluid, if connected to a dynamo meter, the speed of flow could be read via voltage. These are some applications. BY: FAISAL RAFIQUE
What is a Francis turbine?
The Francis turbine is an inward flow turbine that is the most efficient and widely used water turbine in the world today. It works best in higher head (pressure) applications, and hydroelectric power plants at big dams use these guys to make lots of watt-hours. The term "inward flow" means that the turbine itself (the thing with the blades that the water "presses on" to make the thing turn) has the water directed from the outside of the turbine wheel in onto the blades, and through them to a "center area" for the water to exit. The unit is darn efficient. Pictures are a mouse click away. Use the link to surf on over to our friends at Wikipedia (from which some of the data here was gathered) for more information and the cool pics that really show a viewer how the unit works.
How is a water wheel similar to a turbine in a hydroelectric power plant?
Both have blades or buckets.
Wheel composed of a series of blades that is used to turn a generator?
A wheel composed of a series of blades that is used to turn a generator is known as a turbine.
What is the differences between pelton turbine and kaplan turbine?
pelton turbines are suited to high head,low flow application but kaplan turbine are used for low head and a large amount of discharge needed. kaplan turbines are expensive to design,manufacture and install as compared to pelton turbine but operate for decades.
Did LEster Alan Pelton invent the water turbine?
Pelton invented a free jet water turbine called the Pelton wheel or Pelton turbine
Where is a pelton wheel used?
In a water turbine.
What is the efficiency of pelton wheel turbine used in the lab?
0 to5 %
How is water converted into energy?
By using the water to drive a turbine or a water wheel or pelton wheel.
Can you use more than one nozzle in pelton wheel turbine?
yes
What is a circular disk of blades that moved by a moving fluid?
a turbine a pelton wheel
What is a circular disk of blades that is moved by moving fluid?
a turbine a pelton wheel
What is difference between pelton wheel and turgo turbine?
pelton turbine is used for high head low flow but the turgo turbine is used for low head high flow, in pelton turbine number of jet can increased but in turgo it can't be done, in pelton the water hits the bucket once at a time but in tugo it hits more than one
What is the position of the shaft in pelton turbine?
In the center of the wheel shaft is connected to the spoon away.

Who discovered hydro energy?
Lester Allen Pelton invented a type of free-jet water turbine called the Pelton Wheel. Before him, people used watermills to turn wheat into flour.
