Turgo water turbines can operate on the head 30 m up to 300 m. As Pelton water turbine, Turgo water turbine is categorized in impulse water turbine type, but its blades is different. Jets of water from the nozzle hit the blades at angle 20o.
Rotational speed of turgo water turbine is greater than the pelton water turbine. As a result, the transmission can be possible distributed directly from the turbine to the generator thereby increasing total efficiency and lowering cost of maintenance.
