HM 450.01 Pelton Turbine Show data sheet (pdf file) Print page
Technical Description
The HM 450.01 Pelton Turbine Set is a functional model of a water driven Pelton turbine. Characteristic for such turbines is the complete conversion of pressure and motion energy in the control device. In this case this is formed by an adjustable needle jet. Apart from the control device, the turbine consists of a housing transparent on one side, and the Pelton impeller. An adjustable band brake is fitted to the impeller shaft for applying load to the turbine. The Pelton Turbine Set is operated in conjunction with the HM 450 Basic Unit. Rotational speed and output moment are measured electronically and indicated on the switch cupboard on the Basic Unit.
Learning Objectives / Experiments
Using this set designed for training and experimental purposes, the following experiments can be performed:

· Determination of typical turbine curves
· Determination of performance curves at different speeds
