Civil Engineering

For a small scale hydraulic power system, the elevationdifference between the reservoir water surface and the pond watersurface downstream of the reservoir is 20.35. The velocity of thewater exhausting into the pond is 7 m/s, and the discharge throughthe system is 4 m3/s. The head loss due to friction inthe penstock (inlet pipe to turbine, under very high pressure) isnegligible. Find the power produced by the turbine in kilowatts.Assume specific weight of water is 9810 N/m3 and g =9.81 m/s2
