An inward flow reaction turbine has outer and inner diameters of the wheel as 1 m and 0.5 m respectively. The vanes are radial at the inlet and the discharge is radial at outlet and the water enters the vanes at an angle of 10°. Assuming the velocity of flow to be constant and equal to 3 m/s, find (a) speed of the wheel, and (b) vane angle at outlet.
