In a hydroelectric power plant, 100 m/s of water flows from an elevation of 120 m to a turbine, where electric power is generated. The total irreversible head loss in the piping system from point 1 to point 2 (excluding the turbine unit) is determined to be 35 m. If the overall efficiency of the turbine-generator is 80%, estimate the electric power output (kW). 100 m's 120 m h-35 m Turbine Generator utiege- 0%
