Orifis and Tank Bosalma Preliminary Analysis - Dere Gecisi Tank Bosalma Suresi Calculator: method and worked example
What the calculation does
Tank drawdown to zero under changing head, constant horizontal tank area At: t=2 At sqrt(H)/(Cd A sqrt(2g))/60 minutes. This is NOT constant-head Q=Cd A sqrt(2gH) applied over full period.
Example using the prefilled values
Inputs: At=12 m², Cd=0.62, d=80 mm, H=3 m (evaluate using the calculator above).
How to interpret the result
Tank drawdown to zero under changing head, constant horizontal tank area At: t=2 At sqrt(H)/(Cd A sqrt(2g))/60 minutes. This is NOT constant-head Q=Cd A sqrt(2gH) applied over full period.
Assumptions and limitations
Incompressible quasi-steady free discharge; effective head is measured to orifice centreline for free flow or differential head for submerged flow. Coefficient Cd depends on edge/approach/submergence and must be calibrated. An ideal speed formula does not predict actual exit flow without contraction/losses.
