Kaplan Turbine is an axial flow reaction turbine named in honour of Dr. B. Kaplan, a Gennan Engineer. This turbine is suitable for low head. The power produced by a turbine is proportional to QH. As the head (H) decreases the J discharge (Q) must increase to produce the same power. The present set-up consists of a scroll casing housing a runner. Water enters the turbine through the stationary guide vanes and passes through the runner axially. The runner has a hub and airfoil vanes, which are mounted on it. The water is fed to the turbine by means of Centrifugal Pump. The runner is directly mounted on one end of a central SS shaft and other end is connected to a brake arrangement. A transparent hollow cylinder made of acrylic is fitted in between the draft tube and the casing for observation of flow. Load is applied to the turbine with the help of rope brake arrangement so that the efficiency of the turbine can be calculated. The set-up is supplied with control panel. A draft tube is fitted on the outlet of the turbine. The set-up is complete with guide mechanism. Pressure and Vacuum gauges are fitted at the inlet and outlet of the turbine to measure the total supply head on the turbine Experiments To study the operation of Kaplan turbine. To determine the Output Power of Kaplan Turbine. To determine the turbine efficiency Utilities Required Water Supply and Drain Electricity 1.5 kW, 440V AC, Three Phase Floor Area 1.5 x 0.75 m

THE APPARATUS CONSISTS OF A GLASS TUBE WITH ONE END HAVING BELL MOUTH ENTRANCE; CONNECTED TO A CONSTANT HEADWATER TANK, AT THE OTHER END A VALVE IS PROVIDED TO VARY THE FLOW RATE. THE TANK IS OF SUFFICIENT CAPACITY TO STORE WATER; A CAPILLARY TUBE IS INTRODUCED CENTRALLY IN THE BELL MOUTH FOR FEEDING DYE FROM A SMALL CONTAINER PLACED AT THE TOP OF TANK, THROUGH PVC TUBING. BY VARYING THE RATE OF FLOW, THE REYNOLD’S NUMBER IS CHANGED. THIS ALSO CHANGES THE TYPE OF FLOW. VISUAL OBSERVATION OF DYE (THREAD) WILL INDICATE THE TYPE OF FLOW, WHICH CAN BE CONFIRMED FROM THE REYNOLD’S NUMBER COMPUTED. THE SET-UP CAN BE CONNECTED TO HYDRAULIC BENCH WITH FLEXIBLE PIPELINE. RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS To determine the Reynold’s number and hence the type of flow either laminar or turbulent To study transition zon FEATURES Clear Acrylic test section Superb Painted structure Simple to operate & maintain UTILITIES REQUIRED Hydraulic Bench.
