At the maximum rate of power generation, a small hydroelectric power plant takes a discharge of 16.2 m/s through an elevation drop of 61 m. The head loss through the intakes, penstock, and outlet works is 5.8 m. The turbine, combined with the electrical generator, is able to convert 86% of the mechanical energy into electrical energy. What is the rate of electrical power generation? The water temperature is 15°C. Elevation = 61 m Penstock Powerhouse 4 Elevation = 0...

A hydraulic power system, as shown in the picture, has an elevation difference between the reservoir water surface and the downstream water pond surface of H( 7 m). A discharge of 0.8 m3/s flows through the penstock and spins a hydraulic turbine, which in turn drives a generator to produce electric power. Estimate the electric power generated if the head loss through the entrance, penstock and exit is 1 m, L and the efficiency of the turbine and generator are...

9) Electrical power is to be generated by installing a hydraulic turbine-generator at a site 70 m below the free surface of a large water reservoir that can supply water at a rate of 1500 kg/s steadily. If the mechanical power output of the turbine is 800 kW and the electric power generation is 350 kW, determine the turbine efficiency and the combined turbine-generator efficiency of this plant. Neglect losses in the pipes. (10pts).

1. What power in kilowatts can be developed by the impulse turbine shown if the turbine efficiency is 85%? Assume that the resistance coefficient fof the penstock is 0.015 and the head loss in the nozzle itself is negligible. What will be the angular speed of the wheel, assuming ideal conditions (r-?.kr. ), and what torque will be exerted on the turbine shaft? Assumptions: there is no entrance loss, head loss in nozzle is negligible, and water density is 1000kg/m...
