ernturbine.)—A simple form of reaction wheel consists of a singlerigid casing secured transversely to a vertical axle, and is pro-vided with two small orifices in the vertical sides of the casing,each facing backwards as regards direction of motion, andequidistant from the axle. (See Fig. 41.) A… … Fig. 41. compared with the cross-section of the casing, AB, so thatthe relative velocity of the water in the main body of the lattermay be considered to be zero. The horizontal plane of rota-tion of the centers of the orifices is h feet below the reservoirsurface, and the absolute velocity of the…
