⏳ English Water Clock: Constant-Head Clepsydra Simulator

Open the valve of a brass-and-oak water clock, switch the Ctesibius float regulator on and off, change the water temperature and watch the cylinder level, the pocket-watch error and the clock's rate drift. Real Torricelli flow, viscosity-dependent discharge coefficient and an independent numerical check.
