A tank shaped like a vertical cylinder initially contains water to a depth of 9m. The
bottom plug is pulled at time t = 0. After 1h, the depth has dropped to 4m.
Determine how long it will take for all the water to drain from the tank if the rate of
change of depth of water in the cylinder, y, is described by:
dy = -k√y
dt
Where
y
is the depth of the water in the cylinder (m)
r is the radius of the cylinder (m)
t is the time (hr)
a is a constant.
The differential equation in the above can be derived using the Bernouli Equation and the Mass
Continuity Equation.
Bernouli Equation:
P/p+0.5v² + gz = 0
Mass Continuity Equation
Mass in - Mass out + Generation - Consumption = accumulation.
Derive the Differential Equation=-k√y and express k in terms of the properties of the system.
