De inatlon of coefficient of discharge of a mouthpiece
Aim: To determine the coefficient of discharge of mouth piece by variable head method.
Basic concept: A mouth piece is a short tube fitted to a circular orifice provided to the
bottom of the tank. The length of the tube is usually two to three times its diameter. It is
usually required to know the actual flow rate and the time required for emptying a tank
through a mouth piece.
Apparatus:
1. Mouth piece fitted to a tank
2. Piezomete r
3. Meter scale
4. Calipers
5. Stop watch
Formulae:
2A(A-J hJ
Time required for the liquid to descend from h1 to h2. ( t) = Cda,fig

a= cross -sectional area of mouthpiece


b 1 =initial liquid level in the mouthpiece tank
b 2 =final liquid level in the mouthpiece tank
g = acceleration due to gravity
A= internal plan area of the balancing tank = L x B =
Ccs = coefficient of discharge of Mouthpiece
Procedure:
1. The diameter of the mouth piece and the internal plan dimensions of the mouth piece

tank are measured.


2. Water is allowed in to the mouthpiece tank so that the head above the centre of the

mouth piece is h 1.
3. The supply valve is completely closed and the water level in the mouth piece tank is
allowed to descend to h2.
4. Note down the time taken (t) to descend the water level from h1 to h2

6
5. The above procedure is repeated for different values of h 1 and hz.
