Hi,
I found this site searching for formulas that took into account gravity, volume, and pressure, to determine how fast water would drain out of a given size hole.
In short, I'm into boats, trying to figure out given a certain size structure, how fast it would drain given certain sized water-letter-outers..
This is my first post on this site. I'm a Computer Science guy, supposedly a math expert but when it comes to anything real world, certainly not..
So, what I've got is an area that's (very irregular shape, but all put together) ~2 feet wide X ~2 feet deep X ~12 feet long.
I'm trying to figure out, if filled with water, how fast it will drain with 2 X 3-inch diameter holes placed at the bottom of the "reservoir".
Any idea where to start with this?
Thanks,
Jon
