Advantage of impulse turbine over reaction turbine?

Impulse turbines have the advantage of operating efficiently with high-pressure water, making them suitable for high-head applications. They can handle variations in water flow and pressure without significant performance loss, as they rely on the momentum of water jets rather than pressure differences. Additionally, impulse turbines typically have simpler designs and are easier to maintain compared to reaction turbines, which require more complex components to manage pressure changes.
