Electric power is to be generated by installing a hydraulic turbinegenerator at a site 110 m below
Question:
Electric power is to be generated by installing a hydraulic turbine–generator at a site 110 m below the free surface of a large water reservoir that can supply water steadily at a rate of 900 kg/s. If the mechanical power output of the turbine is 800 kW and the electric power generation is 750 kW, determine the turbine efficiency and the combined turbine–generator efficiency of this plant. Neglect losses in the pipes.
