6.2 At the concrete dam bottom shown in the figure, a pipe of diameter d takes water through a water turbine and discharges it into the atmosphere. If the water head is h, the friction loss through the suction pipe is HL, and the pressure at the turbine inlet is p gage. Determine the fluid power P in kW that delivered by the turbine.
