Hello,
My question is, given a single water tank system with two outlet running simultaneously, how can the flow rate at each output be calculated and the volume of water used by each outlet be calculated.
Thanks for the contributions

 

Jeffrey...
1) Are the 2 output orifices at the same level from the surface of the water?
2) Are the 2 output orifices the same size?
3) Are the 2 output orifices very small with respect to the volume of water in the tank?
4) Is there water flowing into the tank?
As long as the answer to Q3 is yes, then use Bernoulli's Theorem!
Regards, Phil Corso

Hello PhilCorso,

The two output orifices are at the same level from the surface of the water, the same size, and water flows into the tank after the water level gets to a certain level (lower bound).

Hello Phil,

Thanks for the contributions. Please see the attached sketch as requested.

@ Jeffrey...
Presuming you use metric units in your location, please provide following:
Qf, flow-rate thru fill-line pump.
Tf, time fill-line pump is in service,
Dt, diameter of tank.
Ht, height of tank.
Hd, height of discharge-line(s) above bottom of tank.
Od, diameter of discharge-line orifice, if provided.
Ov, diameter of discharge-line valve if orifice is not provided.

Hello,
Please, kindly be informed that I've found a way to go about this problem after further research and consultations.
