Flow Rate (L/min) | Max Error % | Pi_LfomOrifice(the number of rows) | LFOM Design | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
100 | 0.398 | 20 | This design has the lowest error but the construction is difficult because there are excessive orifices to drill | |
100 | 0.545 | 10 | This has a higher error but is easier to construct | |
200 | 0.14 | 20 | This design has the lowest error but the construction is difficult because there are excessive orifices to drill | |

The Mathcad Entrance Tank Code was run for seven flow rates, three Pi_LfomOrifice values, and two initial values for the H.flowloc array. The excel spreadsheet with the original data is available here. The Entrance Tank Code is available throught through the SourceForge repository, a storage system. To access the code ............follow these folders: design repository -> Automated Design -> Design -> EntranceTank.
