Elev A Water Elev C Elev B Water flows from Reservoir A (Elev 138 ft.) to a turbine (Elev 75 ft.) then discharges into tailtrace B (Elev 26 ft.) as shown. The head loss from (A) to (1) is 4 times the velocity head in the pipe, and the head loss from (2) to (b) is 0.96 times the velocity head in the pipe. If the flow rate in the pipe is 34 ft3/s, diameter of all pipes is 26 in, calculate the horsepower generated by the turbine. Use 1 hp = 550 lb-ft/s. Round off to the nearest whole number.
