Hello community!!
I'm in a license trial of COMSOL to verify its capabilities to our simulation requirements.
We have an open roof tank at the top of a hill; it is filled by a pipeline with constant flow.
The tank nozzle is connected to a gravity pipeline that discharges to a pond. The stationary state water height in the tank is closely related to the discharge coefficient of the nozzle that was calculated through a manual of small dams but the real height differed a lot.
I plan to simulate the tank and see if the stationary height of the tank is closer than the dam-exit aproximation.
I'd appreciate some recommendation about the appropriate (transient - stationary??) simulation and the input and gravity pipeline characteristics.
Kind regards.
