| 1. | A two-stage velocity compounded impulse turbine is shown in Figure
|
| 2. | Some impulse turbines use multiple jets per runner to balance shaft thrust.
|
| 3. | Newton's second law describes the transfer of energy for impulse turbines.
|
| 4. | It is a three stage pressure compounded impulse turbine.
|
| 5. | In 1903 Zoelly developed a multi-stage axial flow impulse turbine in collaboration with Professor Stodola.
|
| 6. | A friend and colleague of L�on Foucault, Girard was most notable for his work with impulse turbines.
|
| 7. | De Laval's impulse turbine is simpler, less expensive and does not need to be pressure-proof.
|
| 8. | Impulse turbines are most efficient for use in cases where the flow is low and the inlet pressure is high.
|
| 9. | In general, impulse turbines are used for high head sites, and reaction turbines are used for low head sites.
|
| 10. | This is an impulse turbine impacted by burning gases from a cartridge, usually created by igniting a solid propellant similar to gunpowder.
