1. To model power production in a traditional hydroelectricity unit, we can use the below schematic figure. Water (e= 998 kg/m3, µ = 0.001 kg/m.s) flows from a large tank at elevation 60 m through a cast iron pipe with total length of L diameter 0.1 m. There are three losses associated with sharp-edge entrance, 90° reg- ular elbow and an open globe valve. Outlet of the valve is discharged to atmosphere. The velocity of the water in the pipe is 3 m/s. For minor losses use values for a flanged pipe with diameter of 4". Find the power produced in the turbine in kW 100 m and unit.

The water is being pumped out of a ground-level storage reservoir with water surface elevation of 149.27 ft and needs to pass over a hill 2 miles away, where the pipe centerline is at elevation 200.00 ft.

(b) How much power will be added to the water? (c) What size motor should be purchased if the pump/motor combination has an efficiency of 80 percent?
