Calculating the specific speed, we can easily get value recommended for Peyton wheel with one jet.

Power (P) in formula is in KW and not Watt.

Specific Speed (Ns) is criterion for deciding the type of turbine to be used.
Ns = [N(Q)^0.5]/H^(5/4).
So, Ns = 22.13 RPM.
and it is in range of Pelton Turbine.
Ns = [N(Q)^0.5]/H^(5/4).
So, Ns = 22.13 RPM.
and it is in range of Pelton Turbine.
