Question
Water flows from Resorvoir A (Elev 133 m.) to a turbine (Elev 76 m.) then discharges into tailtrace B (Elev 30 m.) as shown. the head loss from (A) to (1) is 2 times the velocity head in the pipe, and the head loss from (2) to (b) is 1.49 times the velocity head in the pipe. if the flow rate in the pipe is 35 ft63/S, diameter of all pipes is 25 in., calculate the horsepower generated by the turbine. Use 1 hp = 550 lb-ft/s.
