A water turbine delivering 10MW power is to be tested with the help of a geometrically similar 1:8 model, which runs at the same speed as the proto-type.
(a) Find the power developed by the model assuming the efficiencies of the model and the proto-type are equal.
(b) Find the ratio of the heads and the ratio of mass flow rates between the proto-type and the model.
Ans:
