    An elevated water tank, also known as a water tower, will create a pressure at the ground-level outlet of 1 kPa per 10.2 centimetres (4.0 in) or 1 psi per 2.31 feet (0.70 m) of elevation. Thus a tank elevated to 20 metres creates about 200 kPa and a tank elevated to 70 feet creates about 30 psi of discharge pressure, sufficient for most ...

Steam and water immediately begins to escape through this. As the water will have a maximum temperature of 210°C, [8] lower than tin's melting point of 230°C, this water jet may act to freeze the plug ...
