Consider a single jet of water striking the buckets of the impulse wheel as shown. Assume ideal
Question:
Consider a single jet of water striking the buckets of the impulse wheel as shown. Assume ideal conditions for power generation [Vbucket = (1/2)Vj and the jet is turned through 180° of arc]. With the foregoing conditions, solve for the jet force on the bucket and then solve for the power developed. Note that this power is not the same as that given by Eq. (14.24)! Study the figure to resolve the discrepancy.
