THE DIMENSIONING OF THE AXIAL TURBINES
In this paper is presented a new method for calculating the axial
hydraulic turbines, whose applicability is demonstrated by a numerical
example. This method is based on the torque developed by the turbine
rotor, which from reasons of simplicity, has been obtained by the
theorem of dimensional analysis. Calculation results with the proposed
method for the flow of small water falls are in a good accordance with
those in the specialty literature. The method should be extended and
verified for large and medium flow and water falling.
