Abstract: Pelton turbine is used for high- head packages in the range 500-2000 meters. The output it produces about 10-three hundred MW. It includes 1 to six nozzles that may carry out based upon one or more nozzles. The energy available at inlet of rotary engine is most powerful kinetic power. In this paper 3 one of a kind pelton turbine designs are fascinated about distinct buckets. Design part is performed via using CATIA software program. After layout part completes evaluation is carried out by using ANSYS fluent. In ANSYS FLUENT the analysis is accomplished on three exceptional pelton turbine designs. After evaluation part is finished evaluating the solution in the ANSYS FLUENT undergoing static structural analysis based on the efficient pelton turbine bucket model and changing the material properties for the efficient pelton turbine by undergoing analysis using three different types of materials and finally concluding about which material is best to model pelton turbine.
