Which one of the following correctly expresses the specific speed of a turbine and a pump, respectively?
NQ1/2/H3/4, NP1/2/H5/4
NP1/2/H3/4, NQ1/2/H5/4
NP1/2/H5/4, NQ1/2/H3/4
NP1/2/H7/4, NQ1/2/H3/4
Range of specific speed for Pelton wheel Double Jet is
3 to 30
30 to 60
60 to 300
300 to 1000
In the case of Francis turbine, velocity ratio is defined as V3/(2 gH)0.5 where H is the available head and V3 is the
absolute velocity at the draft tube inlet
mean velocity of flow in the turbine
absolute velocity at the guide vane inlet
flow velocity at the rotor inlet
When R = 0.5, the conditions are
Vr1 = Vr2
V1 = Vr2, V2 = Vr1
V1= V2
V2 > V1
Under Maximum Utilization factor what conditions comes into picture
Vr2 = Vf2, β2 = 90ο , U2 = Vw2
V2 = Vf2, α2 = 0ο, Vw2 = 0
Vr2 = V2, β2 = α2, U2 = 0
V2 = Vf2, α2 = 90ο, Vw2 = 0
