The GUNT HM 450.01 - Pelton Turbine is a free-jet impulse turbine that converts the pressure energy of water into kinetic energy in the distributor. Pelton turbines are ideal for applications with high heads and relatively low flow rates. The turbine power is adjusted via the nozzle cross-section, making it suitable for driving synchronous generators at constant speeds.
The HM 450.01 Pelton Turbine is an accessory for the HM 450C trainer. The experimental unit features a Pelton wheel, a needle nozzle as distributor, an adjustable band brake for turbine loading, and a housing with a transparent front panel. The transparent cover allows observation of the water flow, Pelton wheel, and nozzle during operation. The nozzle needle can be adjusted to change the cross-section and regulate the flow rate.
