OK, I have worked out that the weight of the water is 9.426Kg in a tank that holds Ø0.2 of water x 0.3m high. I have tank 1, Ø10mm pipe on a u bend going into another tank (tank2) at the other end of the u bend. so how do I work out and include the acting pressure of what is needed in the u...

OK, So I have worked out a figure for the pressure. (based on the volume of water being 0.003534m3 p = 0.003534m3 therefore P= 0.003534 x 9.81 x 200mm (depth) therefore P= 6.9337kg/m3 But if i use the other calc taking the weight of water (0.003534) +10Kg / 0.785 (cross sec area of tube @...

Assume all dims in millimeters and kilos and I am working on a hydraulic set up I have a cylinder Ø200mm diameter x 400 high, it has a hole in the middle Ø10mm going into a capped Ø10mm pipe. The cylinder is filled with water up to 300mm high. There is a buoyant weight that floats on top of the...
