This project is focused on experimental analysis of impact of water jet on vanes. This work intends to predict the output of a pelton wheel, and to determine its optimum rotational speed. Hence this work explains how the deflection of the jet generates a force on the buckets, and how the force is related to the rate of momentum flow in the jet. In this experiment, we measure the force generated by a jet of water striking a flat plate or a hemispherical cup, and compare the results with the computed momentum flow rate in the jet. The experiment is shown in the arrangement, in which water supplied from the Hydraulic Bench is fed to a vertical pipe terminating in a tapered nozzle. This produces a jet of water which impinges on a vane, in the form of a flat plate or a hemispherical cup

the years, engineers have found many ways to utilize the impact force of
fluids. For example, the Pelton wheel has been used to make flour.
Further, the impulse turbine. Firemen make use of the kinetic energy
stored in a jet to extinguish fires in high-rise buildings. Many other
applications of fluid jets can be cited which reveals their
technological importance. This experiment is designed to study the force
