Figure P11.93 shown on the following page, shows a cross flow or €œBanki€ turbine [Ref. 55], which resembles a squirrel cage with slotted curved blades. The flow enters at about 2 o€™clock, passes through the center and then again through the blades, leaving at about 8 o€™clock. Report to the class on the operation and advantages of this design, including idealized velocity vector diagrams
Brief Discussion (not a €œSolution€):
The cross flow turbine is ideal for small dam owners, because of its simple, inexpensive design. It can easily be constructed by a novice (such as the writer) from wood and plastic.
