A hydroelectric station operates under a mean head of 30 m. The reservoir employed has a catchment area of 4× 108 m2. The rainfall in this area is 125 cm per annum. Determine the capacity of the station for which it should be designed. Assume that 30% of the rainfall is lost due to evaporation etc, 5 per cent of the head is lost in penstock , turbine efficiencies as 85% ,alternator efficiency as 90% and load factor as 50%​
