An outward flow reaction turbine operates under a head of 45 m and discharge of 10 m3/s. The speed of the runner is 450 rpm. At the runner blade inlet, the speed and flow ratios are 0.7 and 0.2, respectively. If the overall and hydraulic efficiencies are 82 and 90%, respectively, compute the power developed
