150 mm is discharging water under a constant
head of 6 m. If C, for vena-contracta = 0.62,C,
= 0.855 and atmospheric pressure head = 10.3
m of water, find:
21.
(i) Discharge through the mouthpiece, and
(ii) Absolute pressure head of water at vena
contracta.
[Ans. (i) 0.1639 m² /s, (ii) 496 m (abs.)]
