8. Mean velocity is typically 85% of surface velocity for turbulent flow[4] When flow is turbulent, v s = v mean

9. Typical Energy Use of Small Household = 1000 kWhr

12.  Reaction turbine (low head, high flow)  Propeller type turbine with variable angle fins  Operates with as little as two feet of head  Optimized for installation site (expensive)  Greater than 90% efficiency (less in low head applications)

14.  Hybrid reaction/impulse turbine  Performs well over wide range of heads  70-80% efficiency  Significantly lower cost than Kaplan (~10%)
