Pelton Wheel Turbine Test Rig

Pelton Wheel Turbine Test Rig

The Pelton Wheel Turbine Test Rig demonstrates the working principle of an impulse turbine and helps analyze its efficiency and performance. The unit consists of a Pelton wheel, nozzle with spear control, pressure gauges, and a mechanical dynamometer. Students can conduct experiments to determine turbine efficiency, head, and discharge rate. Designed for engineering colleges, polytechnic institutes, and ITIs, this setup bridges theoretical and practical learning in hydraulic engineering. With durable construction and user-friendly controls, it provides a clear understanding of energy transfer through high-velocity water jets in turbine systems.
