1. To reduce velocity/ kinetic energy of water making exit thereby converting kinetic energy to pressure head allowing turbine to be installed above tail pool level.
2. To create negative suction head.
3. Provide added head.

What material steam turbine used for?
he use bronze he use wood.
Do you use HHV or LHV for gas turbine efficiency calculation?
Gas turbine manufacturers generally state the efficiency of their turbines using LHV. However, natural gas in the U.S. is bought and sold on an HHV basis, so be careful that you don't mix units. Otherwise, you will buy a gas turbine that is too small for your anticipated needs.
What is an induced-draft air-cooled condenser?
relies on natural convection and doesn't use a fan
What is steam turbine governor valve?
In large turbines, a valve controls steam flow to groups of nozzles. The number of open valves controls the number of nozzles in use according to the load. A bar-lift or cam arrangement operated by the governor opens and closes these valves in sequence. Such a device is a multi-port valve. Using nozzles at full steam pressure is more efficient than throttling the steam.
Difference between pump and turbine?
TURBINES: generate electricity. use an input to obtain mechanical output. PUMPS: Basically create lift in water. Use mechanical input to create an out put
How is nuclear energy converted for use of people?
Nuclear energy consists of fissile material placed in a "pile." The heat from the reaction converts water into steam. This steam in turn drives a turbine. The turbine connects to a wire that spins inside magnets.
Why would you not heat the steam coming out of turbine and feedback to turbine?
becouse this steam is use repetdly for the turbine
What does wind turbine help?
a wind turbine generates electricity for or use
Can you use dc motor to power hydro turbine?
no you can't use dc motor to power hydro turbine ?
Why is it important to use a dry test tube?
A drying tube or guard tube is a tube-like piece of apparatus housing a disposable solid dessicant, at one end the tube-like structure terminates in ground glass to connect the drying tube to a reaction vessel, to keep the reaction vessel free of moisture. (Moisture which may adversely effect the reaction)
What is the use of a steam engine?
turbine
What does a home wind turbine do?
A home wind turbine will use the power of wind to provide and generate energy. One can use a home wind turbine at home to provide electricity or heat water, for example.
Boiling water reactor nuclear power plant?
Basically, nuclear power plants use the heat from a nuclear fission reaction to boil water The steaming water then turns a turbine that generates electricity.
How much does it cost to build a water turbine?
AnswerA small home use Hydroelectric turbine costs about 5,000 if you want a good turbine and 2,500 dollars if you want a cheap but not efficient turbine.
What material steam turbine used for?
he use bronze he use wood.
Why would a turbine be used instead of a water wheel?
a turbine would be used instead of a water wheel because a turbine does not use as much energy and it uses the wind to generate it.
What can you use coal to make?
steam to turn the turbine
