Turbine Service Unit

Turbine Service unit provides a water supply which is required to operate the turbine demonstrations. The service unit consists of a stainless steel base on which is mounted a water reservoir a compact three-phase pump and an electronic flow meter. The pump is controlled direct from the computer using the speed controller inside the USB interface console.

The turbine under test is connected to the dynamo-meter by a toothed drive belt. Load is applied to the turbine using a magnetic brake controlled directly from the computer. The outer casing of the brake is restrained from rotating by a lever arm which is connected to a load cell which allows the braking force and hence the torque produced to be directly measured. The dynamo-meter unit also incorporates an optical sensor which measures the rotational speed of the turbine.
