Water flows from the bottom of a large tank where the pressure is 100 psig through a pipe to a turbine which produces 5.82 hp. T
he pipe leading from the turbine is 60 ft below the bottom of the tank. In this pipe the pressure is 50psig, the velocity 70 ft/, and the flow rate 100 lb/s. If the friction loss in the system, excluding the turbine, is 40 ft*Ib/Ibm, find the efficiency of the turbine.
When you use the equation q = m x c x ∆T you will be able to find the energy gained or lost. The data for the water in this case is just there to distract you so ignore it. :D
