Abstract
This article describes the design of a simple reaction turbine operating on saturated low pressure steam that could be generated by a solar boiler. The turbine was developed primarily to obtain a small power unit for irrigation purfoses. Tests were therefore performed with the combination of turbine and a centrifugal pump. Horsepower curves and rotational loss curves are shown, and a comparison with five other small prime movers of varied design is also presented.
