Power of Turbine given Specific Speed Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Power Output of Turbine = ((Specific Speed of Turbine*Effective Head of Turbine^(5/4))/Speed of Turbine)^2
P = ((N_s*H_eff^(5/4))/N)^2
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Power Output of Turbine - (Measured in Kilowatt) - The Power Output of Turbine is the amount of energy transferred in unit time by the turbine.
Specific Speed of Turbine - (Measured in Revolution per Minute) - Specific Speed of Turbine is the speed which produces 1KW of power under 1m head.
Effective Head of Turbine - (Measured in Meter) - Effective Head of Turbine is the net or the effective head of the turbine. It is the height difference between where the water enters the hydro system and where it leaves it.
Speed of Turbine - (Measured in Revolution per Minute) - Speed of Turbine is the angular velocity of the rotation of the turbine.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Specific Speed of Turbine: 159.4 Revolution per Minute --> 159.4 Revolution per Minute No Conversion Required
Effective Head of Turbine: 25 Meter --> 25 Meter No Conversion Required
Speed of Turbine: 200 Revolution per Minute --> 200 Revolution per Minute No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P = ((N_s*H_eff^(5/4))/N)^2 --> ((159.4*25^(5/4))/200)^2

Evaluating ... ...

P = 1985.028125

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1985028.125 Watt -->1985.028125 Kilowatt (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

1985.028125 ≈ 1985.028 Kilowatt <-- Power Output of Turbine

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
