| Abstract | Irrigation is a prerequisite for improving agricultural production. Where 
gravity irrigation is not possible, water lifting devices fulfill the requirement. But 
the rising cost of fuel give rise to search a renewable energy source of power. 
water-turbine pump is a device which harness the energy of flowing streams and 
has a wide applicability in this era . Investigation on its performance under 
different working head condition plays a key role in decision making for its 
application to the site. 
Three water-turbine pump of same size (20 cm runner dia) but of different
