Fig. 9.—Humphrey wheel Fig. 10.—Victor wheel. WATER WHEELS. 897 cent, of the theoretical velocity of the -water. From the shape of the bucket, it is difficultto ascertain the velocity at the point of maximum discharge, but it appears to have … 7L iV.iilllll been about 58 per cent, of the theoretical velocity. Emersons test shows 6345 per cent,with half-water. Fig. 11 shows the Victor wheel on a horizontal shaft. Tests of a 15-i/i. Victor Wheel, taken on jack shaft, after passing through a pair of bevel-gears, viz.: crown gear on wheel…
