There is tank of 60ft dia with Light Diesel Oil product at 5ft of its height, How it would be appropriate to determine exact pressure on the tank outlet point?Further , it needs calculation of flow through a valve having 6mm gap in between two discs of 75mm dia.

I shall appreciate your help in calculations these values which are in fact controversial in some cases.
