Coefficient of Discharge given Time for Emptying Tank Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Coefficient of Discharge = (2*Area of Tank*((sqrt(Initial Height of Liquid))-(sqrt(Final Height of Liquid))))/(Total Time Taken*Area of Orifice*sqrt(2*9.81))
C_d = (2*A_T*((sqrt(H_i))-(sqrt(H_f))))/(t_total*a*sqrt(2*9.81))
This formula uses 1 Functions, 6 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Coefficient of Discharge - The Coefficient of Discharge or efflux coefficient is the ratio of the actual discharge to the theoretical discharge.
Area of Tank - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Area of tank is a variable from the concept of emptying the tank through orifice.
Initial Height of Liquid - (Measured in Meter) - The Initial height of liquid is a variable from the tank emptying through an orifice at its bottom.
Final Height of Liquid - (Measured in Meter) - The Final height of liquid is a variable from the tank emptying through an orifice at its bottom.
Total Time Taken - (Measured in Second) - Total Time Taken is the total time taken by the body to cover that space.
Area of Orifice - (Measured in Square Meter) - The Area of Orifice is often a pipe or tube of varying cross-sectional area, and it can be used to direct or modify the flow of a fluid (liquid or gas).

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Area of Tank: 1144 Square Meter --> 1144 Square Meter No Conversion Required
Initial Height of Liquid: 24 Meter --> 24 Meter No Conversion Required
Final Height of Liquid: 20.1 Meter --> 20.1 Meter No Conversion Required
Total Time Taken: 30 Second --> 30 Second No Conversion Required
Area of Orifice: 9.1 Square Meter --> 9.1 Square Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

C_d = (2*A_T*((sqrt(H_i))-(sqrt(H_f))))/(t_total*a*sqrt(2*9.81)) --> (2*1144*((sqrt(24))-(sqrt(20.1))))/(30*9.1*sqrt(2*9.81))

Evaluating ... ...

C_d = 0.786502312252424

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.786502312252424 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.786502312252424 ≈ 0.786502 <-- Coefficient of Discharge
