Q3: A hydro-electric power station has a reservoir of area 2.5 km²and capacity 5.5 x 10°m³. The effective head of water is 100 meters. The penstock, turbine and generation efficiencies are respectively 90%, 85% and 80%. (1) Calculate the total electrical energy that can be generated from the power station. (2) If a load of 20,000 kW has been supplied for 4 hours, find the fall in reservoir level.

The figure below depicts a water supply pump drawing from a reservior. Water is withdrawn from the reservoir with water surface elevation of 200-feet (Point #1 in the figure), by a pump whose inlet eye (Point #2 in the figure) is located 6-feet above the water surface elevation. The reservoir water temperature is 80° F, and the pump delivers 2 cubic feet per second of water from a steel inlet pipe 8 inches in diameter. What is the Net Positive Suction Head available for the condition just described. 1
