The hydroelectric facility that has been proposed will consist of a turbine with an efficiency of 89.2%. The facility will be located at a vertical depth of 14.8 m below t riverbed. The river flows with the following properties: o hydraulic diameter of 6.25 m o slope of 0.031 o wetted perimeter of 12.2 m 0.5 a Chézy coefficient of 4.85 mo5 s-1. The density of the river water is 998.2 kg m , and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m s2. Assuming that the turbine operates for 94.0% of the time and one year is approxima 3.1536 x 10' s, calculate: i. the mass flow rate of the river
