Consider the system which consists of a tank of uniform cross –sectional area A to
which is attached a flow resistance R such as a value ,a pipe ,or a weir.
Case 1 The volumetric flowrate "Q" through the resistance is related to the head "H"
by linear relationship (R is linear resistance). The density of liquid is constant. Find
the transfer function which relates the head to inlet flow.
