A pipe connected with a tank or a cistern or a reservoir, that fills it, is known as an inlet.
Outlet:
A pipe connected with a tank or cistern or reservoir, emptying it, is known as an outlet.
If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours, then:
part filled in 1 hour = 1/x
If a pipe can empty a tank in y hours, then:
part emptied in 1 hour = 1/y
If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours and another pipe can empty the full tank in y hours (where y > x), then on opening both the pipes, then
the net part filled in 1 hour = (1/x - 1/y)
If a pipe can fill a tank in x hours and another pipe can empty the full tank in y hours (where x > y), then on opening both the pipes, then
the net part emptied in 1 hour = (1/y - 1/x)
