In the vertical wall of a reservoir (A) there is a drowned hole that it flows into another reservoir (B) with a real discharge speed of 4,5m/s. This one reservoir (B), in turn, has a square orifice with free discharge of the form shown in the figure. It requires a flow of 0,089 m³/s and there is no overflow of the system, determine the head loss in both orifices. (See the image) Data: Orifice diameter 1 = 0,2m; Discharge coefficient for orifice 2 = 0,604; contraction coefficient for orifice 2 = 0,64. Consider both holessmall in relation to the depth of the reservoirs.

This problem is useful for the preliminary design of a hydroturbine. From the material learned in this chapter, it is fairly simple to estimate how much power a hydroturbine can generate, given only the flow rate of water and the elevation difference upstream and downstream of the dam. A dam has a gross head of 15.5 m and a flow rate of 0.22 m3 /s. Approximating the overall efficiency of the turbine/generator to be 75%, estimate the electrical power (in kW) that couldbe produced.
