Turbine
|
(i) The entire available
energy of the water is first converted into the kinetic energy.
|
(i) The available
energy of the water is not converted from one form to another form.
|
(ii) The water flows
through the nozzles and impings on the buckets, which are fixed to the outer
periphery of the wheel.
|
(ii) The water is
guided by the glide blades to flow over the moving vane.
|
(iii) The water impings on
the buckets with Kinetic Energy.
|
(iii) The water glides
over the moving vanes with Potential Energy.
|
(iv) The pressure of the
flowing water remains unchanged and it is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
|
(iv) The pressure of
the flowing water is reduced after gliding over the vane.
|
(v) It is not necessary
that the wheel should run full.
|
(v) It is necessary
that the wheel should be always run full and kept full of water.
|
(vi) It is possible to
regulate the flow without any loss.
|
(vi) It is not possible
to regulate the flow without any loss.
|
(vii) Impulse turbine has
more hydraulic efficiency than reaction turbine.
|
(vii) Reaction Turbine has
relatively less efficiency than impulse turbine.
|
(viii) Impulse Turbine
operates at very high water heads.
|
(viii) Reaction turbine
operates at relatively low and medium heads.
|
(ix) Example of Impulse
turbine is Pelton wheel.
|
(ix) Examples of
Reaction Turbine are Francis turbine, Kaplan and Propeller Turbine, Deriaz
Turbine, Tubuler Turbine, etc.

Difference between Science, Engineering & Technology
-
Science, Engineering, and Technology are related fields, but they have
distinct focuses and roles in the development and application of knowledge
