Question:

A coastal power plant takes in cooling water through a vertical perforated manifold, as in Fig. P4.72
The total volume flow intake is 110 m3/s. Currents of 25 cm/s flow past the manifold, as shown. Estimate (a) how far downstream and (b) how far normal to the paper the effects of the intake are felt in the ambient 8-m-deep waters.
