Air at a stagnation temperature of $300 K$ (ratio of specific heats, $\gamma=1.4$ and specific gas constant $\mathrm{R}$ $=287 \mathrm{~J} / \mathrm{kgK}$ ) enters the impeller of a centrifugal compressor in axial direction. The stagnation pressure ratio between the diffuser outlet and impeller inlet is $4.0 .$ The impeller blade radius is 0.3 $\mathrm{m}$ and it is rotating at $15000 \mathrm{rev} / \mathrm{min} .$ If the slip factor $\sigma_{s}$ (Ratio of tangential component of air velocity at the blade tip to the blade tip speed) is $0.88,$ the overall efficiency (total-to-total) of the compressor (in \%) is__________

Next Question :

At a station, Storm I of 5 hour duration with intensity $2 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{h}$ resulted in a runoff of $4 \mathrm{~cm}$ and Storm II of 8 hour duration resulted in a runoff of $8.4 \mathrm{~cm}$. Assume that the $\phi$ -index is the same for both the storms.The $\phi$ -index (in $\mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{h}$ ) is:
(A) 1.2
(B) 1.0
(C) 1.6
(D) 1.4
