An Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) power plant built inHawaii in 1987 was designed to operate between the temperaturelimits of 86°F at the ocean surface and 41°F at a depth of 2100 ft.About 13,300 gpm of cold seawater was to be pumped from deepocean through a 40-in-diameter pipe to serve as the cooling mediumor heat sink. If the cooling water experiences a temperature riseof 7°F and the thermal efficiency is 2.5 percent, determine theamount of power generated. Take the density of seawater to be 64lbm/ft3. Also, take the specific heat of water tobe c = 1.0 Btu/lbm·°F.
