A hydroelectric power plant is being designed. Thegross head from the reservoir to the tailrace is 1065 ft, andthevolume flow rate of water through each turbine is203,000 gpm at 70??F. There are 12 identical parallel turbines,each with an efficiency of 95.2 percent, and all othermechanical energy losses (through the penstock, etc.) areestimated to reduce the output by 3.5 percent. The generatoritself has an efficiency of 94.5 percent. Estimate the electricpower production from the plant in MW.
