Ideal drain time (seconds)
Integrated Torricelli: t=2At/(Cd Ao sqrt(2g)) (sqrt(h0)-sqrt(h1)).
Discharged volume (m³)
Integrated Torricelli: t=2At/(Cd Ao sqrt(2g)) (sqrt(h0)-sqrt(h1)).

Assumptions & limits
Assumptions & limits
- Constant-area vented tank, small outlet, no varying coefficient or connected pipe model. Supported limits: All required fields must be finite values of the exact declared type and within displayed bounds. Lists contain1–1000 finite numbers. JSON tables are numeric rectangular rows, at most100 rows and30 columns; individual tools have stricter shape/domain constraints. Constant-area vented tank, small outlet, no varying coefficient or connected pipe model.
