How to use flow

15. A venturimeter is used for measuring the flow of
petrol in a pipeline inclined at 35° to horizontal.
The sp. gravity of the petrol is 0.81 and throat
area ratio is 4. If the difference in mercury levels
in the gauge is 50 mm, calculate the flow in m²/s
if the pipe diameter is 300 mm. Take venturim-
[Ans. 0.07 m/s]
eter constant = 0.975.
