Find value of power produced for operation at steady state


Water behind a dam enters an intake pipe at a pressure of 1.05 bar and velocity of 1 m/s, flow through a hydraulic turbine-generator, and exits at a point 100 m below the intake at 1 bar, 15 degrees C, 10 m/s. the diameter of the exit pipe is 1.2 m and the local acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2. Evaluating the electricity generated at 8 cents per kWh, determine the value of the power produced, in $/day, for operation at steady state and in the absence of internal irreversibilities.
