If I have an inlet pressure of 50psi, 840 gph and an orifice of 1". This then goes into a 10 gallon tank 24" tall. The outlet of the tank is 1/4". What is the pressure coming out of this orifice?

What type of fluid is it? Also, to what pressure does the system ultimately discharge to? If it's water, and not knowing any more details, it doesn't seem that a one-inch orifice for 840 gph would create much of a pressure drop. Is it really an "orifice"?
