You have a cabin in the Colorado wilderness far away from civilization and wantto install a small hydro generator to provide electricity. A stream runs down a hill behind your cabin where you can construct a simple run-of-river hydro installation. You calculate that the effective head of the installation is 25 feet and that water would flow through the system at a rate of 50 cubic feet per minute. The simple inexpensive hydro turbo-generator (turbine mated with electric generator) that you intend to buy has a working efficiency of 60%. Answer the following (show your work):a.How much power can you generate with this system?(1.06 kW)b.How many 100 watt light bulbs can you power with this hydro setup?(10 bulbs)c.What type of turbine would you expect to find in your turbo-generator? Why?

Electrical Heating Unit

The conversion of electrical energy to heat energy is known as electric heating. The heating system that converts the electrical energy to heat energy for various application is called electrical heating unit. Electricity is employed as the firing mechanism in electric heating systems, which transforms electric current to heat. Electric heaters have heating elements in the form of electric resistors.
