The following design data apply to an inward flow radial
turbine:
Overall efficiency 75%
Net head across the turbine 6 m
Power output 128 kW
The runner tangential velocity 10.6 m/s
Flow velocity 4 m/s
Runner rotational speed 235 rpm
Hydraulic losses 18% of energy available
Calculate the inlet guide vane angle, the inlet angle of the
runner vane, the runner diameter at inlet, and height of the runner
at inlet. Assume that the discharge is radial.
