Two cylindrical tanks filled with water have an opening in the bottom part in the first configuration, the water flow outside immediately after the opening. In the second case, the opening is connected to an additional tube d=20cm and L=3m. Assuming that the level in the tank is kept at a constant height H=5m. a) Calculate the average velocity at the exit of the system for both cases b) Calculate the flow rate for both cases, Which configuration is more efficient? You can assume the losses in the tube are negligible and the flow is turbulent (α=1)r
