The prompt

"A precise 3D model of a Pelton turbine wheel. It features a central cylindrical hub with an 8.2mm diameter through-hole for an M8 shaft. Radiating from the hub are 12 thick spokes. At the end of each spoke is a specialized Pelton bucket. Each bucket consists of two symmetrical, deep, hollow ellipsoidal cups side-by-side, separated by a sharp central splitter ridge. The front outer edge of each bucket has a U-shaped cutout (notch) to allow a water jet to pass through. The buckets are oriented tangentially to catch a water jet. The total diameter of the wheel is approximately 140mm."
