FLUID MECHANICS
AND MACHINERY
TURBINES
HYDRAULIC TURBINE
❖ It is a machine which converts the pressure and
kinetic energy of water called hydraulic energy into
mechanical energy.
❖ These are also called as water turbines.
❖ The mechanical energy of turbine is further
converted into electric energy by an electric
generator which is directly coupled to the shaft of
hydraulic turbine.
HYDRAULIC TURBINE
❖ The electrical power generated is known as
hydroelectric power.
❖ Hydraulic turbines are efficient.
❖ These have low wear and tear and ease of
maintenance.
❖ The capital cost is high with long gestation period
due to the requirement of constructing the dam
across the river and laying the long pipe lines.

GENERAL LAYOUT OF A HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER PLANT
❖ A dam which is constructed across a river to store water.
❖ It provides necessary potential energy to nozzles of a
turbine.
❖ It acts as water reservoir. Top surface of water in dam is
called head race.
❖ The penstock is a large diameter pipe usually made of
reinforced concrete or steel.
❖ It carries water under pressure from the water stored in a
dam or reservoir to the turbines.
GENERAL LAYOUT OF A HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER PLANT
❖ A Water turbine which converts hydraulic energy into
mechanical energy.
❖ A water turbine can be set horizontal or vertical. The
choice is governed by cost, type of turbine, building space
and plant layout etc.
❖ A tail race is a discharge canal into which water is
discharged from the turbine.
❖ Difference of head race and tail race level is called gross
head, Hg.
PELTON WHEEL OR PELTON TURBINE
❖ Pelton wheel is a tangential flow impulse turbine.
❖ In Pelton turbines the water strikes the buckets
along the tangent of the runner or wheel.
❖ It is used for high heads more than 100 m of water.
These turbines have been built up to a head of
1600m.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ The main components of a Pelton wheel are
❖ Nozzle and spear assembly
❖ Runner and buckets
❖ Casing
❖ Braking jet
❖ Deflector
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ NOZZLE AND SPEAR ASSEMBLY
❖ The needle spear is provided in the
nozzle to regulate the water flow
through the nozzle.
❖ It provides the smooth flow of water with negligible loss
of energy.
❖ A spear is a conical needle which can be moved in axial
direction by operating the wheel either manually or
automatically.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ NOZZLE AND SPEAR ASSEMBLY
❖ When the spear is moved in forward
direction into the nozzle, it reduced the
nozzle exit area, hence, the quantity of
water flow striking the buckets is
reduced.
❖ If the spear is moved backwards, it increases the flow rate of water.
❖ The nozzle converts the potential energy of water into kinetic
energy before jet strikes the buckets.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS
❖ The turbine rotor called runner is a
circular disc fixed with buckets.
❖ It is provided with cylindrical boss and
keyed to the supporting shaft in small
thrust bearings.
❖ The runner carries cup-shaped buckets more that 15 in number
which are mounted at equidistance around its periphery.
❖ The buckets are either cast integrally with the circular disc or
these are bolted individually to the runner, it helps in easy
replacement of buckets when worn out.

❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS
❖ The turbine rotor called
runner is a circular disc fixed

❖ It is provided with cylindrical boss
and keyed to the supporting shaft in
small thrust bearings.
❖ The runner carries cup-shaped buckets more that 15 in number
which are mounted at equidistance around its periphery.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS
❖ The buckets are either cast
integrally with the circular
disc or these are bolted
individually to the runner, it
helps in easy replacement of
buckets when worn out.
❖ Buckets are made of cast iron cast steel, special steels or stainless
steel with inner surface polished to reduce friction losses of water
jet.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS
❖ The shape of the buckets is of
double hemispherical cup or
bowl.
❖ Each bowl of the bucket is
separated by a wall called
splitter or a ridge.
❖ The water strikes the bucket at the splitter which splits the water
into two equal streams of the hemispherical bowl.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS
❖ The maximum force will be
obtained when the jet is
deflected through 180° into
exact hemispherical bowl.
❖ In practice the jet is deflected through 160° to 170°
❖ It avoids striking the exit jet with the back of the succeeding
bucket, thus exerting a retarding force on it.
❖ This also avoids the splashing of water with a splitter.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS
❖ Pelton wheel is provided with
two hemispherical cups since
the splitter splits the jet into
two equal streams, the axial
component of each stream
velocity is equal and opposite
due to which the axial thrust
bn the shaft is negligible
❖ Pelton wheel needs very small thrust bearings.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS
❖ An undercut is provided and
surface of spoons is raised so
that water can be deflected
back through the angle of 160 °
to 170° with the vertical
without disturbing the
incoming bucket.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ BRAKING JET
❖ The turbine is brought to rest, the nozzle
is completely closed by pushing forward
the spear.
❖ The runner continues to rotate due to its
inertia for a considerable period of time
till it comes to rest.
❖ In order to bring the runner to stop in a shortest time, a small
nozzle is provided which issues the water jet and falls on the back
of buckets.
❖ It acts as a hydraulic brake for reducing the speed of runner.
CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
❖ DEFLECTOR
❖ A deflector is provided
which is hinged to the
casing to deflect the jet of
water away from striking
the buckets in case the
load on turbine suddenly
reduces.
❖ It prevents the runner of turbine attaining unsafe speeds called
runaway speed.

UNIT-V FMM.HYDRAULIC TURBINE - Construction and working

  • 2. HYDRAULIC TURBINE ❖ It is a machine which converts the pressure and kinetic energy of water called hydraulic energy into mechanical energy. ❖ These are also called as water turbines. ❖ The mechanical energy of turbine is further converted into electric energy by an electric generator which is directly coupled to the shaft of hydraulic turbine.
  • 3. HYDRAULIC TURBINE ❖ The electrical power generated is known as hydroelectric power. ❖ Hydraulic turbines are efficient. ❖ These have low wear and tear and ease of maintenance. ❖ The capital cost is high with long gestation period due to the requirement of constructing the dam across the river and laying the long pipe lines.
  • 4. CLASSIFICATION OF TURBINE Turbine Impulse Turbine Reaction Turbine Pelton Wheel Girard Turbine Francis Turbine Kaplan Turbine Propeller Turbine Turgo Turbine
  • 5. GENERAL LAYOUT OF A HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER PLANT
  • 6. GENERAL LAYOUT OF A HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER PLANT
  • 7. GENERAL LAYOUT OF A HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER PLANT ❖ A dam which is constructed across a river to store water. ❖ It provides necessary potential energy to nozzles of a turbine. ❖ It acts as water reservoir. Top surface of water in dam is called head race. ❖ The penstock is a large diameter pipe usually made of reinforced concrete or steel. ❖ It carries water under pressure from the water stored in a dam or reservoir to the turbines.
  • 8. GENERAL LAYOUT OF A HYDRO ELECTRIC POWER PLANT ❖ A Water turbine which converts hydraulic energy into mechanical energy. ❖ A water turbine can be set horizontal or vertical. The choice is governed by cost, type of turbine, building space and plant layout etc. ❖ A tail race is a discharge canal into which water is discharged from the turbine. ❖ Difference of head race and tail race level is called gross head, Hg.
  • 9. PELTON WHEEL OR PELTON TURBINE ❖ Pelton wheel is a tangential flow impulse turbine. ❖ In Pelton turbines the water strikes the buckets along the tangent of the runner or wheel. ❖ It is used for high heads more than 100 m of water. These turbines have been built up to a head of 1600m.
  • 10. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL
  • 11. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ The main components of a Pelton wheel are ❖ Nozzle and spear assembly ❖ Runner and buckets ❖ Casing ❖ Braking jet ❖ Deflector
  • 12. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ NOZZLE AND SPEAR ASSEMBLY ❖ The needle spear is provided in the nozzle to regulate the water flow through the nozzle. ❖ It provides the smooth flow of water with negligible loss of energy. ❖ A spear is a conical needle which can be moved in axial direction by operating the wheel either manually or automatically.
  • 13. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ NOZZLE AND SPEAR ASSEMBLY ❖ When the spear is moved in forward direction into the nozzle, it reduced the nozzle exit area, hence, the quantity of water flow striking the buckets is reduced. ❖ If the spear is moved backwards, it increases the flow rate of water. ❖ The nozzle converts the potential energy of water into kinetic energy before jet strikes the buckets.
  • 14. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS ❖ The turbine rotor called runner is a circular disc fixed with buckets. ❖ It is provided with cylindrical boss and keyed to the supporting shaft in small thrust bearings. ❖ The runner carries cup-shaped buckets more that 15 in number which are mounted at equidistance around its periphery. ❖ The buckets are either cast integrally with the circular disc or these are bolted individually to the runner, it helps in easy replacement of buckets when worn out.
  • 15. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS ❖ The turbine rotor called runner is a circular disc fixed with buckets. ❖ It is provided with cylindrical boss and keyed to the supporting shaft in small thrust bearings. ❖ The runner carries cup-shaped buckets more that 15 in number which are mounted at equidistance around its periphery.
  • 16. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS ❖ The buckets are either cast integrally with the circular disc or these are bolted individually to the runner, it helps in easy replacement of buckets when worn out. ❖ Buckets are made of cast iron cast steel, special steels or stainless steel with inner surface polished to reduce friction losses of water jet.
  • 17. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS ❖ The shape of the buckets is of double hemispherical cup or bowl. ❖ Each bowl of the bucket is separated by a wall called splitter or a ridge. ❖ The water strikes the bucket at the splitter which splits the water into two equal streams of the hemispherical bowl.
  • 18. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS ❖ The maximum force will be obtained when the jet is deflected through 180° into exact hemispherical bowl. ❖ In practice the jet is deflected through 160° to 170° ❖ It avoids striking the exit jet with the back of the succeeding bucket, thus exerting a retarding force on it. ❖ This also avoids the splashing of water with a splitter.
  • 19. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS ❖ Pelton wheel is provided with two hemispherical cups since the splitter splits the jet into two equal streams, the axial component of each stream velocity is equal and opposite due to which the axial thrust bn the shaft is negligible ❖ Pelton wheel needs very small thrust bearings.
  • 20. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ RUNNER AND BUCKETS ❖ An undercut is provided and surface of spoons is raised so that water can be deflected back through the angle of 160 ° to 170° with the vertical without disturbing the incoming bucket.
  • 21. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ BRAKING JET ❖ The turbine is brought to rest, the nozzle is completely closed by pushing forward the spear. ❖ The runner continues to rotate due to its inertia for a considerable period of time till it comes to rest. ❖ In order to bring the runner to stop in a shortest time, a small nozzle is provided which issues the water jet and falls on the back of buckets. ❖ It acts as a hydraulic brake for reducing the speed of runner.
  • 22. CONSTRUCTION AND WORKING OF PELTON WHEEL ❖ DEFLECTOR ❖ A deflector is provided which is hinged to the casing to deflect the jet of water away from striking the buckets in case the load on turbine suddenly reduces. ❖ It prevents the runner of turbine attaining unsafe speeds called runaway speed.
