Mekong Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 3 and 4 at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bust Posted November 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 I was thinking 3 due to the hydraulic effects of the low feed from from 4 into 3. The pressure is greater than the high feed to 4. That make sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Depends on flow of the tap, if the flow is great enough, 1. If those are the last four drops from the tap, 'cause it's off, then none. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bust Posted November 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Also if the flow of the tap is greater than the drain to 2 then 1 will fill first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe7e Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Assuming the flow is as illustrated (very slow) tank 3 will fill first (just) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 But really, none, as its just a collection of 1s and 0s that my computer has interpreted and displayed on my monitor as a picture, water won't flow, no, won't go, you'll have to post a video for any of this to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 I was thinking 3 due to the hydraulic effects of the low feed from from 4 into 3. The pressure is greater than the high feed to 4. That make sense Once the level in Vessel 3 is at same height as its outlet pipe the pressure in 3 and 4 will be identical and as such both vessels act as one That would cause level in Vessel 2 to increase above its Outlet causing 3 and 4 to increase at the same rate. Being pedantic like Pe7e Vessel 3 will theoretically be full first due to the "Process Lag" imposed on the system by the interconnecting pipe between vessel 3 and 4 but that would be measured in yoctoseconds ys (10-24) So theoretically it would be Vessel 3 but impossible to see or measure so to all intents and purposes 3 and 4 at same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe7e Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 I concur, but fluid dynamics being what they are ie water doesn't flow particularly fast, it wouldn't be measured in yoctoseconds ys (10-24) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 I concur I'm glad someone understood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
