Question:
A siphon consisting of a pipe of 15 cm diameter is used to empty kerosene oil (RD = 0.80) from a tank A. The siphon discharges to the atmosphere at an elevation of 1.00 m. The oil surface in the tank is at an elevation of 4.00 m. The centerline of the siphon pipe at its highest point C is at an elevation of 5.50 m.
Estimate: (i) the discharge in the pipe, and
