An orifice plate is being designed for flow control at the outlet of a detention tank. The outlet pipe has a diameter of 450mm, slope of 0.0018, and roughness ks of 0.6mm. The water level in the tank at the design condition varies between 1.5 and 1.7m above the outlet invert, and the desired outflow is 100ls. Select an appropriate orifice diameter. (Assume orifice Cd=0.6; check that the orifice will not be drowned.)
answers: 200mm not drown
