I know we should use gate valves but according to the boss "we already bought these orifice plate unions and have put pipe marks on them so they can't be returned". In other words, in defiance of common sense, we are going to use the wrong tool for the job, but no one here wants to take responsibility for drilling them to the wrong size.
Now for two days they have been passing the question around trying to get someone to make a decision about what size holes to drill in these parts.
The goal is to get the flow into all three tanks (not shown) about the same rate.
I don't really know how to calculate this, so if someone can give some clues or wants a puzzle to solve I would appreciate the help.
EDIT: All dim units in inches.
