Water enters a hydraulic turbine through a 30-cm diameter pipe at a rate of 0.6 m3/s and exits through a 25-cm diameter pipe. The pressure drop in the turbine is measured by a mercury manometer to be 1.2 m. For a combined turbine-generator efficiency of 83 percent, determine the net electric power output. Disregard the effect of the kinetic energy correction factors. 30 cm Turbine Generator 25 cm AP = 1.2 m Hg Water enters a hydraulic turbine through a 30-cm diameter pipe at a rate of 0.6 m3/s and exits through a 25-cm diameter pipe.
