Repeat Prob. 799 except for a different dependent parameter, namely, the time required to empty the tank
Question:
Repeat Prob. 7–99 except for a different dependent parameter, namely, the time required to empty the tank tempty. Generate a dimensionless relationship for tempty as a function of the following independent parameters: hole diameter d, tank diameter D, density ρ, viscosity μ, initial liquid surface height h, and gravitational acceleration g.
Data from Problem 7–99
A liquid of density ρ and viscosity μ flows by gravity through a hole of diameter d in the bottom of a tank of diameter D (Fig. P7–99). At the start of the experiment, the liquid surface is at height h above the bottom of the tank, as sketched. The liquid exits the tank as a jet with average velocity V straight down as also sketched. Using dimensional analysis, generate a dimensionless relationship for V as a function of the other parameters in the problem. Identify any established nondimensional parameters that appear in your result.
