Objective
Advantages
Almost all electric power on Earth is generated with a
turbine of some type.
Used for large engines.
Large mass flow rates
Better efficiencies
It gives high flow at low heads.
Disadvantages
Expensive
Difficult to manufacture

selection of turbine
Propeller Turbine
Working Priciple
WORKING
The Propeller's blades are adjustable for pitch and will handle a
great variation of flow very efficiently
They are 90% or better in efficiency and are used in place of
some of the old (but great) Francis types in a good many of
installations.
The application of Propeller turbines are from a head of 2m to
40m.
CAVITATION
Turbine Design
Design Procedure
V =(Dt2-Dh2)Cm
Assume hyd=0.85
hyd=Wbl/W
we get Wbl
1=tan-1(Cm/u)
2=tan-1((u*Cm )/(u2-wbl))
We get 1 & 2 for hub and tip
Cavitation
min=(3.65*nq)1.64/50327
=((Pb-PV)/-dt((C12-Cex2)/2)-gHe)
Assume dt=0.9
so, >min
Hence cavitation is not possible
Kb=(2gH(s/ch))/(u*Wme)=M*CL
tan(90-me)=0.5(tan(90-1)+tan(90-2))
We get me for hub and tip
Sinme= Cm/Wme
We get Wme for hub and tip
We find space: chord ratio and M by graph for hub and tip
By putting all above values in equation we get Kb for hub
and tip.
But Kb=M*CL
So we get CL
=(1b+2b)/2=42.7050
me- =
=2b-1b
