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

Va = 7.922

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?
