The comparison kaplan and francis hydro power turbine is as under: 1. Efficiency of Kaplan hydro power turbine is higher. 2. Kaplan turbine is more compact in cross-section and has higher rotational speed to that of francis hydro power turbine. 3. In Kaplan turbine, the water flow is axia and in francis trubine it is radial. 4. The runner blades in the kaplan turbine is less in number. 5. Specific speed of Kaplan turbine is 2 to 3 times that of Fancis turbine. 6. Friction loss in Kaplan turbine is less. 7. Francis turbine requires medium head while Kaplan trubines are low head hydro power turbines.
The Kaplan turbine is a newer, more revolutionary version of the Francis turbine, which came before it. The draft tube is used so that the turbine does not need to be where the water flow is lowest.

The Kaplan turbine has variable pitch runner blades for a low head, high volume hydroelectric generating system. The Kaplan turbine is a propeller-type water turbine that has adjustable [pitch] blades. Its invention allows efficient power production in low head applications. (That means the machine works effectively with low water pressure.) It is in wide use in hydroelectric generating plants around the world where lower pressure, high volume water sources are being tapped for energy generating applications. This information was refined thanks in no small part to our friends at Wikipedia. Use the link and surf on over for more details and some cool pics.
pelton turbines are suited to high head,low flow application but kaplan turbine are used for low head and a large amount of discharge needed. kaplan turbines are expensive to design,manufacture and install as compared to pelton turbine but operate for decades.
The maximum power of a Kaplan Turbine is about 230MW

It depends upon megawatt of turbine & design of blades.
It may be depends on the Constructor/ Design of Turbine .
