Multi Turbine Test Set
Multi-turbine test set with Pelton, Francis, and Cross Flow turbines for studying torque, power, efficiency, and performance under various heads and flows.
Description
Multi Turbine Test Set. This is a self contained set of three different types of turbine namely-Pelton, Francis, Cross Flow, designed for studying the turbine characteristics under various flow rates and heads.
The unit consists of a pump and a storage tank, turbine units connected in parallel, a dynamometer for each turbine, and measuring instruments. The unit is on wheels.
Instruction manual is also included.
TYPICAL EXPERIMENTS
Each turbine can be tested on the following:
- Torque vs speed at various heads and flow rates.
- Power output vs speed for various heads and flow rates.
- Efficiency vs speed for a given head and flow rate.
- Racing characteristics.
