The runaway speed is the max. speed which the turbine can theoretically
attain. It is achieved during load rejection.
The following guideline can be used to determine the runaway speed.

Outlet Velocity

The outlet velocity c4 can be established via the discharge and the
diameter at the outlet of the water ppassage.
g Since the dimensions of
the water passage are not known, the outlet velocity has to be
assumed. An outlet velocity of 2m/s is chosen. Using this velocity, a

As long as the chosen suction head is below the established suction
head, no cavitation occurs.
A suction head of 0.45m is chosen.

on the twist of the blade.

Step-5
The angle of slip can be calculated using the following equation:
Check whether the assumed angle of slip and the calculated angle of slip are
similar or not.
If the difference is too great, repeat the procedure using the angle of slip
calculated from the above equation.
Steps
p 2 to 5 must be repeated

g of slipp do not change
g anymore;

however, it is necessary to always choose the same profile in Step 4.
When the angle is fixed, it can be assumed that the last calculated values of
Steps 2 to 5 are accurate enough.
Thus, the ratio l/t and the profile are determined.
