At night, the engineer plans to release the water stored in the tank at a rate of 0.2 cubic foot/second through a 2 inch schedule 40 pipe and will hook up a hydraulic motor to power an electric generator. the plan is to operate this for 12 hours where the cheaper electricity rate of 6 cents per kwhr is possible the total energy loss through the pipes is 15 n-m/n, the hydraulic motor is known to be 70 percent efficient and the attached electric generator is known to be 80% efficient. a) determine the power removed from the fluid by the hydraulic motor b) determine the total energy removed from the fluid during the 12 hour night operation. c) determine the total energy delivered by the electric generator to the electric company. d) determine the revenue associated with the 12 hour night operation. e) determine if the business engineering plan is economically feasible.
