I am doing a software development code to dispense water for which I need to find the its flow rate.
The tank can hold around $300$ liters of water and has only a $1/2$" inch ($.75$ cm inch diameter) pipe ($6$ inches length) as outlet. I would be installing a flow sensor to this pipe to measure water dispensed. As per the sensor the Min and Max flow rate should be $1-30$ liters per minutes.
Can anyone please let me know if this flow sensor is ok for my software setup? What is the min and max water flow rate via this $1/2$" pipe when tank is full / half / below half. I am not sure how to calculate flow rate.
