Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Francis Turbine Operating Principles Apparatus (Product ID: 14198) as part of its Civil Engineering Lab Equipment range. It is a small Francis turbine with adjustable guide vanes and band brake.
Quick Answer
A 50 mm, 7-vane runner (5 mm wide) is driven through six guide vanes with 20 settings, giving about 12 W at 1100 rpm with about 40 L/min at 8 m head. A band brake with spring balances (0-10 N) loads it, and a 0-1.0 bar manometer reads inlet pressure; the operating area is transparent. It runs from a hydraulic bench or laboratory supply, and a non-contact speed sensor is optional.
