Question:

Water flows from a large tank as shown in Fig. P3.90. Atmospheric pressure is \(14.5 \mathrm{psia}\), and the vapor pressure is 1.60 psia. If viscous effects are neglected, at what height, \(h\), will cavitation begin? To avoid cavitation, should the value of \(D_{1}\) be increased or decreased? To avoid cavitation, should the value of \(D_{2}\) be increased or decreased? Explain.
