Coefficient of Velocity for Pelton Wheel

Go Coefficient of Velocity for Pelton = Velocity of Pelton Jet/sqrt(2*[g]*Pelton Head)

Absolute Velocity of Pelton Jet

Go Velocity of Pelton Jet = Coefficient of Velocity for Pelton*sqrt(2*[g]*Pelton Head)

Pelton Head

Go Pelton Head = Velocity of Pelton Jet^2/(2*[g]*Coefficient of Velocity for Pelton^2)

Inlet Relative Velocity of Pelton

Go Inlet Relative Velocity of Pelton Turbine = Velocity of Pelton Jet-Bucket Velocity of Pelton Turbine
