68. Water at a rate of 1 m'/s enters a small hydraulic turbine from the horizontal supply line, having a diameter of 50 cm. The pressure at the inlet (stage 1 in the figure) is 200 kPa. Pressure in the turbine discharge conduit (the draft tube) at location 2, which is 2 m below the turbine centerline, is measured as 55 kPa. Find the shaft head and the horsepower developed by this turbine. Use D2 = 65 cm.
