Question

answer the following

Situation 1
The 60 cm pipe conducts water from reservoir A to a pressure
turbine which discharges through another 60
am--jEL. 70 m
cm pipe into
tailrace B.
The head losses are:
From A-1 :
2g
v2
H60 cm Ø
From 2-B : 0.20-
2g
If the discharge is 0.70 m3 /sec :
HEL. 5m
1. Determine the head extracted by the turbine (HE) in meters.
HEL.O
DATUM
2. Solve for the input power of the turbine (Pinput or Pturbine) in kW.
TURBINE
3. At 90% efficiency, compute for the output power (Poutput) for electricity in kW.
