    Water discharge and Bernoulli's equation

    I would like to understand why do you consider the static pressure at the discharge to be equal to the atmospheric pressure. All that is required is the total pressure to be bigger than the atmospheric pressure. As long as the static pressure is compensated by the dynamic pressure, the static...

    Water discharge and Bernoulli's equation

    Thanks for being so swift answering me. The dynamic pressure before the hole is not assumed to be very small. In the literature aforementioned in my post, the authors seek to calculate the velocity for the discharge. I, too, thought that the total pressure before the hole and after the hole...

    Water discharge and Bernoulli's equation

    Dear all, I have found in the literature that if there is a open tank discharging water into the atmosphere the pressure at the discharge point is considered to be equal to the atmospheric pressure. If one looks to the Bernoulli's equation and assuming no friction: Pressure +...
