Hi,
I am trying to determine the volumetric liquid flow rate out of a tank under 10 bar of N2 pressure.
Vessel details:
Internal Diameter = 0.5 m
Height = 0.51 m
Liquid level = 50 L / 0.255m
liquid density = 1.005 kg/l
Liquid viscosity = 100,000 cP
I was wondering if you can guide me towards how to calculate the volumetric flow rate at various outlet diameters.
I would like to then calculate the pressure drop over the specific length and hence determine the suitable pipe size.
The solution is non-Newtonian and shear thinning.
Any help would be appreciated.
