    1992-Jude_Sommerfeld-More Applied Math Problems on Vessel Draining
    From a chemical engineering point of view emptying processing and storage tanks is important and this article considers many issues and shapes of containers. The main interest is in the total time it takes to empty the tank for a collection of...

    We examine many different physical situations to determine the time it takes a fixed volume of water to flow out of different shape containers through the same size exit hole at the bottom of the container.

    The time it takes a column of water to empty and the time it takes the same volume of column of water with a box (various sizes) submerged in the column of water are compared through modeling with Torricelli's Law.

    1-090-EmptySphericalTank-ModelingScenario
    We model the emptying of water from a spherical tank. First, we pump out water at a constant rate. Second, we allow the water to exit through a small hole in the bottom of the tank. We seek to determine how fast the water level is falling in both...
