A power station produces $$500$$ $$MW$$ of power. Assuming a plant thermal efficiency of $$33.3$$ percent, calculate the rate of cooling water flow required in tons per hour, if the rise of cooling water temperature is to be restricted to $${5^ \circ }C.\,\,\,$$ The specific heat of the water used is $$4.2$$ $$kJ/kg$$-$$K.$$

Identify the type of turbo machinery for the following case. Specify the reasons.
Power developed $$=430$$ $$kW;$$
Operating head $$=300$$ $$m;$$
Speed $$=600$$ $$rpm.$$
