Question
A water intake at a pump storage reservoir (the figure) has a cross-sectional area of 0.585 m2. The water flows in at a speed of 0.596
m/s. At the generator building, at distance D = 224 m below the intake point, the cross-sectional area is smaller than at the intake and
the water flows out at 8.64 m/s. What is the difference in pressure between inlet and outlet?
