The velocity of the flow at the inlet of Kaplan turbine is V. In an experimental setup, what could be the possible value of the velocity of the flow at the outlet of Kaplan turbine?

Correct Answer: 0.8V
The flow velocity of turbine at the outlet of the Kaplan turbine will be lesser than that of the inlet due to effects of friction in the blade. Hence, practically a lower value would be obtained. 0.8V is the only option lower than V.

In the inlet velocity triangle of a Kaplan turbine, α1 = 45o. The velocity of flow at inlet = 10 m/s. Find the whirl velocity of water at the inlet of Kaplan turbine?

A tank has an inlet and outlet pipe. The inlet pipe fills the tank completely in 2 hours when the outlet pipe is plugged. The outlet pipe empties the tank completely in 6 hours when the inlet pipe is pluggeed. If there is a lekage also which is capable of draining out the liquid from the tank at half of the rate of outet pipe,them what is the time taken to fill the emty tank when both the pipes are opened?

The whirl velocity of water at the inlet of the Kaplan turbine is 15 m/s. The velocity of water at inlet of the turbine is 20 m/s. Find the guide vane angle at inlet (In degrees).

The relative velocity of water at the inlet of the Kaplan turbine is 7 m/s. β1 = 75o. The whirl velocity of the water at inlet is 10 m/s. Find the blade velocity of the turbine?

Two outlets of a motor manufacturing company reported that revenue from outlet x in 2013 was down 11 percent from 2012. and revenue from outlet Y in 2013 were up 7 percent from 2012. If total revenue from outlet X & Y in 2013 was up 1 percent from 2012, what is the ratio of revenue from outlet X in 2012 revenue from outlet Y in 2012?

In the outlet velocity triangle of a Kaplan turbine, β2 = 30o. Vf2 = 5 m/s. What is the relative velocity of the flow at outlet?
