The Pelton wheel is an efficient and widely used water turbine, designed to harness the power of falling water. It was invented by American engineer, Lester Allan Pelton in 1879, and has since become a popular choice for hydropower generation in various parts of the world due to its high efficiency and ability to operate with low head pressure. The wheel's unique bucket design allows it to capture a large amount of water, converting the kinetic energy into mechanical energy through a centrifugal force, making it an excellent choice for powering water pumps, mills and other machinery. With its high efficiency and versatility, the Pelton wheel continues to play a crucial role in modern hydropower generation systems.
