ULER'S TURBO EQUATION
. The following assumptions are made in deriving Euler's turbo equation.
1) Mass flow rate is constant
2) The state of fluid at any given point is time invariant
3) The rates of energy transfer as heat and work at the rotor are constant.
4) Losses due to leakage are negligible .
5) Same steady mass of fluid flows through all the sections. Sa vce
