REACTION TURBINE
• Working fluid completely fills the passageways through which it
flows (unlike an impulse turbine, which contains one or more
individual unconfined jets of fluid)
• Angular momentum, pressure and velocity of the fluid decrease
as it flows through the turbine rotor
• Turbine extracts energy from the fluid
• Low head and High flow rate
