Q1: An Orifice meter is inserted in a pipe of 20 cm diameter. Water flows through the pipe and the diameter of the orifice is 10 cm. The difference between the pressure heads upstream and downstream of the Orifice meter is (85 + x) cm of water. Assume that the coefficient of discharge of the Orifice meter is 0.65. Calculate actual discharge through the pipe. X=23
