Francis Turbine Test Rig (1Kw-3Kw)

Product Code : SCL-CELE-13417

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Francis Turbine Test Rig (1Kw-3Kw) (Product ID: 13417) as part of its Civil Engineering Lab Equipment range. It tests a mixed-flow reaction turbine in the 1 to 3 kW range.

Quick Answer

Water enters the curved-vane runner radially and leaves axially, converting part of its pressure energy into kinetic energy on the way. The rig gives 1 to 3 kW at about 1500 rpm with about 2000 L/min at 15 m head, loaded by a 300 mm rope brake dynamometer. A 5 to 15 HP three-phase centrifugal pump (Kirloskar make) supplies water from a 200 to 400 L sump; flow is measured with a venturimeter.
