Efflux speed via pressure and density ===================================== The speed of a fluid flowing out from a small orifice can be expressed as a function of the fluid's :doc:`hydrostatic pressure ` and density. **Conditions:** #. The orifice is very small relative to the horizontal cross-section of the container. #. The fluid is :ref:`ideal `. ..
