# The inlet angle of runner blades of a Francis turbine is 90°. The blades are so shaped that the tangential component of velocity at blade outlet is zero. The flow velocity remains constant throughout the blade passage and is equal to half of the blade velocity at runner inlet. The blade efficiency of the runner is. ## Answer (Detailed Solution Below). ## Detailed Solution. \({V\_f}\_i = {V\_f}\_o = \frac{{{u\_i}}}{2}\). \({\eta \_H} = \frac{{{V\_{wi}}{u\_i}}}{{gH}} = \frac{{u\_i^2}}{{gH}}\). \(\begin{array}{l} \rho gQH = \rho Q{V\_{wi}}{u\_i} + \frac{{\rho QV\_o^2}}{2}\\ gH = u\_i^2 + \frac{{V\_{fo}^2}}{2} = u\_i^2 + \frac{{u\_i^2}}{8}\\ gH = \frac{9}{8}u\_i^2\\ {\eta \_H} = \frac{{u\_i^2}}{{\frac{9}{8}u\_i^2}} = \frac{8}{9} = 0.8888 \end{array}\). -> The GATE CE Admit Card has been released on 7th January 2025. > The GATE CE 2025 Notification has been released on the GATE official website. -> Candidates preparing for the exam can refer to the GATE CE Preparation Tips to increase their chances of selection. ## More Reaction Turbine Questions.

# Francis turbine. Francis inlet scroll at the Grand Coulee Dam. Side-view cutaway of a vertical Francis turbine. Here water enters horizontally in a spiral-shaped pipe (spiral case) wrapped around the outside of the turbine's rotating *runner* and exits vertically down through the center of the turbine. The **Francis turbine** is a type of water turbine. Francis turbines are the most common water turbine in use, and can achieve over 95% efficiency. A wicket gate "Wicket gate (hydraulics)") around the outside of the turbine's rotating runner controls the rate of water flow through the turbine for different power production rates. Francis turbines are usually mounted with a vertical shaft, to isolate water from the generator. The Francis turbine is a type of reaction turbine, a category of turbine in which the working fluid comes to the turbine under immense pressure and the energy is extracted by the turbine blades from the working fluid.

Evaluation of the Fluid Model Approach for the Sizing of Energy Storage in Wave-Wind Energy Systems. Analysis of the Potential for Use of Floating Photovoltaic Systems on Mine Pit Lakes: Case Study at the Ssangyong Open-Pit Limestone Mine in Korea. The aim is to provide a snapshot of some of the most exciting work published in the various research areas of the journal. In this study, a Francis turbine with specific speed of 130 m-kW was designed on the basis of the port area and loss analysis. The results show that the effect of the port area of runner blade on the flow exit angle from runner passage is significant. In this study, a new method on basis of the port area and loss analysis to design a Francis turbine runner was developed for the Miryang power station in Korea. The meridional shape of the runner was designed on the basis of the combination of the guide vane loss analysis and experience.

# Understanding the Flow Through Francis Turbines. This is the first article in a 4-Part series on **Hydraulic Turbines:**. There are many types of hydraulic turbines; the most common ones are – Pelton turbines, Francis turbines and Kaplan turbines. Though all three types of turbines are designed to meet the objective of power extraction from water, they differ in their working mechanism and operating conditions. This article is the first in a series of articles on **Hydraulic Turbines**, covering various aspects like the difference between Pelton-Francis-Kaplan turbines, the working mechanism, and flow disturbances in Francis turbines. Turbine types - pelton turbine, Francis turbine, Kaplan turbine. ***Figure 2:** **a.** Pelton turbine. Another difference is that Pelton turbines are suitable for places with water stored at high altitude, which enables to attain high head and high velocity, while Kaplan turbines are better suited for locations with high water flow rate and low head. #### **The Working Mechanism of a Francis Turbine**.
