Abstract :
To layout the hydraulic geometry of an advanced runner, it is necessary to predict if the flow Euler energy at runner outlet is zero or not. By applying the concept of channel outlet, the Euler energy can be predicted from the vane´s camber angle. A design criterion to satisfy the distribution of Euler energy along the
