Description:
A two-dimensional, semi-infinite tank, closed by a vertical wall at one end, is initially filled to a certain level with an in viscid liquid at rest. A gate in the lower part of the wall is suddenly opened to a region where the gas pressure is greater or less than the gas pressure over the free liquid surface in the tank. The liquid escapes (or moves inwardly) through the gate under the combined action of gravity and the driving pressure differential. The fluid motion, the shapes of the two free surfaces, and the discharge through the gate are calculated for small times after the opening. © 1970, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.
