Technological Institute of The Philippines - Manila: Short Quiz # 2 and Problem Set 2-B Fluid Flow Measurement

The document is a quiz submission for a fluid flow measurement course containing 5 questions and solutions about flow through orifices and discharge calculations. It includes calculations of discharge through an orifice under head, theoretical jet velocity from a tank, discharge through an orifice in a multi-layer tank, horizontal distance a jet will travel, and time for a tank to drain through an orifice. Diagrams are not included but variables like head, diameter, discharge coefficients, tank dimensions, and fluid properties are provided in the questions and used in the solutions.

1. Assume Cc = 0.62 and Cv = 0.98, calculate the discharge through a 120-mm diameter orifice
under a head of 6.5m of oil (SG = 0.88)

2. A cylindrical tank 1m diameter and 3 meter high contains 1m of water, 1.2 m of oil (sg = 0.8)
and air under a pressure of 15kpa. Find the theoretical velocity of the jet through a 5cm
diameter orifice 30cm above the bottom of the tank

3. A cylindrical tank 1m diameter and 3 meter high contains 1m of water, 1.2 m of oil (sg = 0.8)

4. Water flows through an orifice at the vertical side of a large tank under a constant head of
3.4m. How far horizontally from the vena contracta will the jet strikes the ground 1.6m below
the orifice. Assume Cv =0.97 and Cc = 0.66

Vt =√2gH

Vt =√2(9.81)(3.4)

Vt = 8.1672 m/s

Cv = Va/Vt

0.97 = Va/8.1672

5. A 1.5m diameter vertical cylindrical tank 3m high contains 2.5m of water. A 100mm
diameter circular sharp-edged orifice is located at its bottom. Assume c = 0.6, how long will it
take to lower the water level to 1m deep after opening the orifice?
