Have 100 feet liquid level vertical vessel discharging water through large diameter orifice by gravity.
The draining orifice jet impinges on an inclined deflector 12 feet below the 60-inch discharge valve.
Used Bernoulli's equation for the initial fully-open valve flow:
Q(0) = 0.5 [√ (2 ·...
Structure:
3-story industrial braced-frame tower, story heights ~= 0.85 square foot print dimensions.
Scenario:
Structure supports vertical loads on four columns, with lateral loads in *only one* direction.
One face supports twice the vertical dead load and live load of the other face, by load...
