6. Prepare all the materials to be used.
7. Place the orifice on the vena contracta of the hydraulic tank.
8. Set two specific level on the water indicator. Let h1 be higher than h2.
9. Ready your timer device.
2 the power on so that the water may fill the tank.
10. Turn
11. Wait until the water in scale gets full before turning off the power.
12. Timer starts after the power turned off.
13. Observe the water as it runs down.
14. Stop the timer (time lapse) when the water level reaches h1 for trial 1.
