:Determining Flow Rate/Velocity of Fluid in Low Vacuum

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on determining the flow rate and velocity of a fluid transitioning from atmospheric pressure to a low vacuum. The primary tool referenced is Bernoulli's equation, which is essential for calculating fluid dynamics in this context. The user seeks clarification on which specific form of Bernoulli's equation to apply for calculating the velocity and flow rate of a fluid forced up a pipe by atmospheric pressure due to a partial vacuum. Understanding the application of Bernoulli's equation is crucial for solving this problem effectively.

Homework Statement


How do you determine the flow rate or velocity of a fluid moving towards a low vacuum from atmospheric force pushing the fluid towards the low vacuum?


Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution

 
Physics news on Phys.org
Bernouilli's equation.
 
I looked up the Bernouilli's equations, But I did't know which one to use. I would like to know the velocity and flow rate of a fluid be forced up a pipe by atmospheric pressure because of a partial vacuum.
Can you tell me which equation to look under. What category it would be under.
