Synopsis

For many remote areas beyond the reach of a national grid, micro-hydro is the only economic option. Where flow is limited, but high heads are available, the Pelton wheel is one of the most useful turbines. The manual is written to enable the reader to design and manufacture Pelton turbines with capacities from a few hundred Watts to around 100kw.
