Extreme Head vs Extreme Flow – Hydropower Startup at 3 Scales

In this video, we compare the startup sequence of three completely different turbine configurations: • High Head, Low Discharge – Pelton Turbine (≈500m head) • Medium Head, Medium Flow – Francis Turbine • Low Head, Massive Discharge – Francis Turbine What really changes when head and discharge change in hydropower? Same principle. Same physics. Completely different mechanical behavior. Watch how rotational inertia, water entry, guide vane movement, jet impact, vibration, and synchronization differ as head decreases and discharge increases. From high-velocity jet impact in the Pelton to massive water volume acceleration in low-head Francis units — the scale changes everything.
