Ok thank you.
I will need to have it as precise as possible though, this is for a real case not a homework exercise.
Would you know where I could find information on the way to calculate it (even if if it s not trivial)?
So for a simple situation with a hole at the bottom of a can or a tank, viscosity would not play in the volumetric flow rate out of the hole ?
I am trying to estimate the flow rate of oil with a very low density, out of a pierced tank.
Thanks for the reply SteamKing.
So do you mean that the flow rate is unaffected by the liquid viscosity, as long as we are dealing with Newtonian fluid?
It seems strange that these are not related.
Hey, I was wondering how to calculate the volumetric flow rate (Q) of a liquid other than water through a hole at the bottom of a tank.
I know that
Q= V.A
and
1/2.ρ.V^2 = ρ.g.h
Where,
V: Velocity of the liquid coming out of the hole
A: Area of the hole
h: Height of the...
