Impact of Jet: July 2018

This document summarizes a research project that investigated the impact of water jets on vanes of different shapes to determine the best shape for a Pelton wheel to maximize power output. Spherical vanes were found to be preferable to flat, inclined, or conical vanes according to the measurements of impact force and flow rate. The research was conducted by three authors, including Afshana Morshed and Farzad Hossain from the Military Institute of Science and Technology in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Impact of Jet
Installation of Impact of Jet Apparatus was done to determine the
preferred shape of the vane, for which Pelton Wheel will give the best
power output. The aim of this research was to determine the impulse
momentum theorem as it was applied to the impact of a water jet on
vanes with different geometrical shapes. Different shaped vanes were
used to measure the impact force and the flow rate to choose the best
shape of the vane for the turbine. The vanes used in our research were
categorized into four geometries- flat, inclined, spherical and conical.
Among them, spherical was preferable according to our research.
