this weeks word is draft tube! The principal purpose of the draft tube is to convert water kinetic energy into pressure energy. To decrease the velocity of the water and to raise the pressure of the water before joining the tailrace, the pipe is used to steadily increase the cross-sectional area. The draft tube raises the water pressure to the atmospheric pressure. To tolerate the high pressure and speed of the water, the tube must be strong enough.
