A pipe discharges wine into a 1.5-m-diameter tank. Another pipe (15 cm diameter), located near the base of the tank, is used to discharge wine out of the tank. Calculate the volumetric flow rate into the tank if the wine level remains constant at 2.5 m.

Answer:

Volumetric flow rate = [tex]v=0.1232 m^3 /s[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The volumetric flow rate v= area x velocity

from the given data we will find out area and velocity first.

Area = A = (π /4) d^2

Diameter = d = 15 cm = 0.15 m

Area = A = [tex](3.14/4) * 0.15^2\\Area = A =0.0176 m^2[/tex]

The velocity  = V = [tex]\sqrt{2gH}[/tex]

height of wine in the tank = H = 2.5 m

[tex]Velocity = V = \sqrt{2*9.8*2.5}\\Velocity = V = 7 m/s\\[/tex]

Now calculating the volumetric flow rate

v = A x V

v = 0.0176 x 7

[tex]v=0.1232 m^3 /s[/tex]

The volumetric flow rate into the tank if the wine level remains constant will be 0.1232 m³/s.

What is the volumetric flow rate?

It is the volume of flow per unit second, represented as the product of velocity and cross-sectional area.

Q = cross-sectional area(A) * Velocity(V)

Cross-sectional area A of the pipe = π/4 * d² = π/4 * (0.15)² = 0.0176 m².

Velocity V of pipe = [tex]\sqrt{2gh}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{2*9.81*2.5}[/tex] = 7.004 m/s.

So, discharge Q = A*V = 0.0176*0.71  = 0.1232 m³/s.

Thus, the volumetric flow rate into the tank if the wine level remains constant will be 0.1232 m³/s.
