Question
Question #3, but it has to do with question #1 but with a reservoir elevation of 71.98
3)
reservoir elevation 71.98m. How much of a reduction in flow was there when the
elevation in the reservoir is reduced by over 60%?

1) A 150-mm-diameter, square-edged orifice conveys flow from a reservoir with water level at elevation 79.25m. The
center of the orifice is at elevation 66.10m. Find the discharge for free flow. Note: The orifice flow equation is set up
already for feet or meters.
- Calculate the height of the water above the orifice.
- Calculate the area of the orifice.
- Assume the coefficient of discharge based on what was learned in class.
- Use the appropriate equation to solve for the flow through the orifice.
- Compare your answer: 0.176 m^3/s
