This system
installed in February 1992 and similar to the system used in Kharana. The
maximum water head is 56 m. The system configuration is as follows. The
24-blade rotor has a diameter of 7.5m and is made of a steel structure with
galvanized sheets. In this design, the gears were avoided, and a crank linkage
mechanism was introduced for power transmission. The tail is inclined relative
to the vertical in order to limit rotational speed. The pump is single acting, with
an inside cylinder diameter of 104mm made of brass and the three leathers on
the piston for sealing. Test laboratories for the determination of the
performance of mechanical wind converters were installed in Al-Kharana and
