Turbines Selection
There are several basic types of turbines, each operates most effectively in a certain pressure and flow range. Many times the turbine types are characterized but their effective "head range". The list below shows generally accepted values by turbine
| Turbine Style | Head(H) Range in Meters | Head(H) Range in Feet |
| PeltonWheel | 50 <H < 1300 | 150 < H < 5000 |
| CrossFlow | 3 <H < 250 | 9 < H < 750 |
| Kaplan | 2 < H < 40 | 6 < H < 125 |
| Propeller | 2 < H < 40 | 6 < H < 125 |
