Hot chocolate at 60C is siphoned from a large tank using a 1.0”
constant-diameter hose to a holding tank feeding a coating system
used to enrobe the chocolate on candy bars. The end of the siphon
is 1 m below the bottom of the tank. Calculate the elevation over
which the chocolate may be siphoned into the holding tank without
cavitation. The atmospheric pressure is 101.3 kPa. Height of hot
chocolate in the tank is 3 m. Get the viscosity and density of
chocolate from literature. Provide the source of your information
accordingly.
