Question

A jet of velocity V strikes a vane that moves to the right at
speed Vc, as in Fig.  The vane has a turning angle θ.
Derive an expression for the power delivered to the vane by
the jet. For what vane speed is the power maximum?

P. V, A
Ve
Transcribed Image Text:P. V, A Ve
Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data:

*The velocity of the jet is V.

*The velocity of the vane is Vc.

*The vane has a turning angle of θ.

The relative velocity of the jet and the van is V-Vc.

Thus, the force due to the flow of jet is given by:
