Installation of Impact of Jet Apparatus was done to determine the preferred shape of the vane, for which Pelton Wheel will give the best power output. The aim of this research was to determine the impulse momentum theorem as it was applied to the impact of a water jet on vanes with different geometrical shapes. Different shaped vanes were used to measure the impact force and the flow rate to choose the best shape of the vane for the turbine. The vanes used in our research were categorized into four geometries- flat, inclined, spherical and conical. Among them, spherical was preferable according to our research.
