Area of the collecting tank, A = 300 x 300mm

Head of water in the supply tank, H= 1cm

MODEL CALCULATIONS:-
Q = AH/t
Q = 0.3x0.3x0.01/33.25
Q = 0.27 x 10-4
V = Q/a
Values of a(in cm2) :-
a1=12.5, a2= 11.5, a3=9.25, a4=6.5 , a5 =4, a6=2.5
For a = 12.5cm2
V = 0.27 x 10-4/12.5 x 10-4
V = 0.0216 m/s
V2/2g = 0.02162/2x9.81
V2/2g = 0.23 x 10-4 m

RESULT :-

At minimum cross section of pipe

p/y + V2/2g + Z value for medium head tank level(in cm) = 31 ,
30.8, 30.71, 30.73, 30.683, 30.52
p/y + V2/2g + Z value for low head tank level(in cm) = 20.5,
20.6, 20.712, 20.024, 19.964, 19.965
Average value of total head for medium head tank level =
30.76 cm
Average value of total head for low head tank level =
20.30 cm
