„Pelton-turbina” változatai közötti eltérés

 

 

The pelton wheel turbine is a tangential flow impulse turbine, water flows along the tangent to the path of the runner. Nozzles direct forceful streams of [[water]] against a series of spoon-shaped buckets mounted around the edge of a wheel. Each bucket reverses the flow of water, leaving it with diminished energy. The resulting [[impulse]] spins the turbine. The buckets are mounted in pairs, to keep the forces on the wheel balanced, as well as to ensure smooth, efficient momentum transfer of the fluid jet to the wheel. The Pelton wheel is most efficient in high [[head (hydraulic)|head]] applications.
