Question

The actual discharge of liquid through an orifice is determined by multiplying ideal discharge by a factor called coefficient of discharge. The coefficient of discharge is given by __________.

A.

DischargeVelocity\frac{Discharge}{Velocity}​​

B.

Theoretical dischargeActual discharge\frac{\text{Theoretical discharge}}{\text{Actual discharge}}​​

C.

Actual dischargeTheoretical discharge\frac{\text{Actual discharge}}{\text{Theoretical discharge}}​​

D.

Actual dischargeVelocity\frac{\text{Actual discharge}}{\text{Velocity}}​​

Correct option is C

Orifice meter:
An orifice meter is a cheap device for discharge measurement.
The coefficient of discharge (Cd) is defined as the ratio of actual discharge to the ideal discharge. 
CdC_d = Actual dischargeTheoretical discharge\frac{\text{Actual discharge}}{\text{Theoretical discharge}}​​
