A siphon consisting of a 3cm diameter tube is used to drain oil from a large dlameter open tank. The cutlet end of the tube is 1m beiow the oil surface. Neglecting trictional and other head loss effects, catculate the discharge fow rate ( m3/hr) of the oil. If the topmost point of the siphon is 1m. above the oll surface in the tank, estimate the absolute pressure of the fluid at the highest point of the siphon. (Take the density of oil is 800kg/m ? and local atmospheric pressure is 100kPa ) [10 maiks]
