Explanation:
Bernoulli equation for the flow between bottom of the tank and pipe exit point is as follows.
=
h =
= 60.76 ft
Hence, formula to calculate theoretical power produced by the turbine is as follows.
P = mgh
=
= 6076 lb.ft/s
= 11.047 hp
Efficiency of the turbine will be as follows.
=
× 100%
=
= 52.684%
Thus, we can conclude that the efficiency of the turbine is 52.684%.
