💧 Francis Turbine Hall: Penstock Head, Euler Work and Efficiency Hill

A Blender-modelled Francis hydro unit with cutaway casing and flowing water. Set reservoir head, guide-vane opening, pole pairs and runner size to see Euler turbine work (u1 cu1 - u2 cu2)/g, penstock friction, shock and exit losses, the efficiency hill, specific speed, Thoma cavitation margin and a rigid water-column surge on load rejection.
