Compare calculators

Both calculators run independently — change the inputs on either side to compare results.

Hydraulic Jump Calculator

Compute sequent depth, energy loss, and Froude number for a hydraulic jump in an open channel. Used by hydraulic engineers to design stilling basins and dissipate kinetic energy in spillways.

Fluid Mechanics

Tank Drain Time Calculator

Calculate how long it takes to drain a tank from one liquid level to another through a bottom orifice. Ideal for sizing drain valves, planning tank cleanouts, or verifying emergency drainage rates.

Initial Liquid Height (m)

Final Liquid Height (m)

Tank Cross-Section Area (m²)

Drain Orifice Area (m²)
