Variables Used

Efficiency of Hydropower - Efficiency of Hydropower is the ratio of useful energy output generated from water flow compared to the input energy.
Energy through Hydraulic Turbines - (Measured in Joule) - Energy through Hydraulic Turbines describes the power generated by the turbine.
Rate of Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Rate of Flow is the rate at which a liquid or other substance flows through a particular channel, pipe, etc.
Head of Water - (Measured in Meter) - Head of Water is defined as the height of water columns.
Head Loss due to Friction - (Measured in Meter) - The Head Loss due to Friction occurs due to the effect of the fluid's viscosity near the surface of the pipe or duct.
Time Period of Progressive Wave - (Measured in Second) - Time period of progressive wave is the time taken by a wave to complete one oscillation.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Energy through Hydraulic Turbines: 522.36 Newton Meter --> 522.36 Joule (Check conversion here)
Rate of Flow: 32 Cubic Meter per Second --> 32 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Head of Water: 2.3 Meter --> 2.3 Meter No Conversion Required
Head Loss due to Friction: 1.5 Meter --> 1.5 Meter No Conversion Required
Time Period of Progressive Wave: 2.6 Second --> 2.6 Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

η = E_Turbines/(9.81*q_flow*(H_Water-h_location)*T_w) --> 522.36/(9.81*32*(2.3-1.5)*2.6)

Evaluating ... ...

η = 0.799995589273112

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.799995589273112 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.799995589273112 ≈ 0.799996 <-- Efficiency of Hydropower
