Large-Scale 10-Bucket Pelton Water Turbine Runner (200mm)

Overview

This Large-Scale 10-Bucket Pelton Water Turbine Runner is an impulse-type water turbine impeller designed for high-displacement micro-hydro power generation setups, laboratory physics demonstrations, and fluid mechanics test rigs. Key Design Characteristics: • High-Displacement Split-Cup Layout: Outfitted with 10 deep, split-cup buckets. The split-cup profile divides incoming liquid jets to minimize fluid drag and maximize the transfer of kinetic energy to the rotor. • Extended Spoke Architecture: The buckets are mounted on extended cylindrical radial spokes to increase the rotational radius. This design generates higher torque at lower rotational speeds compared to standard compact runners. • Solid Central Hub: Constructed with a solid central hub containing a standard mounting bore for easy integration with generator shafts or test spindles. • Precision FDM Print: 3D-printed using high-density white polymer, offering structural strength, balance, and water resistance during active flow testing. Package Includes: • One (1) Large-Scale 10-Bucket Spoke-Style Pelton Turbine Wheel (White)
