Question:

Reconsider Prob. 13–79. Using appropriate software, investigate the effect of the salinity of the ocean on the maximum power generated. Let the salinity vary from 0 to 5 percent. Plot the power produced versus the salinity of the ocean, and discuss the results.

Data From Q#79:

A river is discharging into the ocean at a rate of 150,000 m3/s. Determine the amount of power that can be generated if the river water mixes with the ocean water reversibly. Take the salinity of the ocean to be 2.5 percent on mass basis, and assume both the river and the ocean are at 15°C.
