Vertical Flow from a Tank
Product Code : JA-FMAHLE-9989
The Vertical Flow from a Tank apparatus (SKU JA-FMAHLE-9989), supplied by JaincoLab, studies how water flows out of the bottom of a tank through outlets of different shape. Five interchangeable inserts give different contours and diameters, and an adjustable overflow sets the head. This tank outflow apparatus measures the jet diameter with a gauge and the total pressure with a Pitot tube, shown on twin tube manometers, so the contraction coefficient of each outlet can be found.
Specifications
The tank outflow apparatus is specified by a tank of about 13 litres, a maximum flow rate of 14 L/min and a maximum overflow height of 400 mm, with 5 outlet inserts, a jet-diameter gauge, a Pitot tube and twin tube manometers.

Experiments with the tank outflow apparatus
The apparatus is used to measure outflow rates and jet contraction for different outlet shapes, and to find the contraction and discharge coefficients from the head and jet readings.
