10 Questions

What is the diameter of the outlet nozzle in the tank?

1 m

If the tank's diameter is 10 m, what is its radius?

5 m

What is the initial height of the fluid above the tank outlet?

30 m

How does the diameter of the tank compare to the outlet nozzle diameter?

The tank's diameter is larger than the outlet nozzle's diameter

What happens to the fluid level in the tank as it drains out?

It decreases linearly with time

What is the relationship between the cross-sectional areas A2 and A1 for the venturi meter mentioned?

A2 is half of A1

If the pressure at point 1 is 20 psia and the pressure at point 2 is 0.0 psia, what can be inferred about the fluid velocity change from point 1 to point 2?

It increases

What is the significance of the fluid pressure reaching 0.0 psia at point 2 in a venturi meter?

It indicates maximum fluid velocity

At what point along a venturi meter does the fluid velocity reach its maximum value?

Point 2

How does the vapor pressure of water at 200°F affect the maximum allowable velocity at point 2 in a venturi meter?

Higher vapor pressure restricts velocities

Calculate the time taken for the fluid level to drop in a cylindrical tank with specific dimensions. Solve for the time it takes for the fluid to move from a certain height to another height above the tank outlet.
