Discharge water at a flow rate of 2.5 m3/s through a pipe flowing into a turbine to generate electricity. The inlet pipe has a diameter of 1 m. The outlet has a diameter of 1.5 m. The gauge installation at the inlet is 2 m higher than the outlet gauge. The pressure at the inlet and outlet of the turbine is shown. in the picture If losses from the piping system are not taken into account, find out how many watts of power this turbine will produce, given that the efficiency of this turbine is 80%.

Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.
