The main components of a Pelton turbine are:
(i) water distributor and casing,
(ii) nozzle and deflector with their operating mechanism,
(iii) runner with buckets,
(iv) shaft with bearing,
(v) auxiliary nozzle.
Auxiliary nozzle is used as brake for reducing the speed
during shut down.
• The runner is located above maximum tail water to permit
operation at atmospheric pressure.
Key Parts of Pelton Turbine
Runner with Buckets
• The runner consists of a circular disc with a number (usually more
than 15) of buckets evenly spaced around its periphery.
• Each bucket is divided vertically into two parts by a splitter that has
a sharp edge at the centre and the buckets look like a double
hemispherical cup.
• The striking jet of water is divided into two parts by the splitter.
• A notch made near the edge of the outer rim of each bucket is
carefully sharpened to ensure a loss-free entry of the jet into the
buckets,
• i.e., the path of the jet is not obstructed by the incoming buckets.

Pelton Wheel Distributor - CFD Analysis
• The distributor to the Pelton wheel for the given geometry has
been simulated using Fluent in a 3-d viscous incompressible
flow simulation.
• The set of governing equations solved were primarily the
continuity and the momentum equations.
• The given geometry was meshed using the unstructured
tetrahedral meshes due to geometrical complexity.
• An optimized tetrahedral mesh size of 25 was employed
resulting in a a total of 62583 tetrahedral elements.

Number of buckets
• The number of buckets for a given runner must be determined so
that no water particle is lost.
• Minimize the risks of detrimental interactions between the out
flowing water particles and the adjacent buckets.
• The runner pitch is determined by the paths of;
• the bucket tip (diameter Dpelton), the Wheel diameter (DWheel).
• and the relative paths of the water particles stemming from the
upper and lower generators of the jet.
• The bucket pitch must be selected so that no particle stemming
from the lower generator of the jet can escape the runner without
encountering any bucket.

Geometric Details of Bucket
The hydraulic efficiency
depends more on the main
bucket dimensions (length
(A), width (B) and depth
(C)).
The shape of the outer part
of its rim or on the lateral
surface curvature also has
marginal effect on
hydraulic efficiency.
