The town of Mustang, TX is concerned that waste heat discharged from a new up- stream power plant will decimate the minnow population in its local stream. The power plant is 35% efficient with a rated output of 350 MW, and 75% of the waste heat is discharged into the stream, which flows at 150 m3/s. Before the power plant starts operations, the stream temperature was 20◦C. If the minnows can handle max- imum stream temperatures of 22◦C, will the water be safe at the point of cooling water discharge? (Assume that the waste heat is discharged to the flow of the whole stream.)
