A 250 mm x 125 mm venturimeter is provided in a vertical pipe line carrying oil of specific gravity of 0.9, the flow being upwards. The difference in elevation of the throat section and entrance section of the venturimeter is 0.5 m. The differential U-tube mercury manometer shows a gauge deflection of 300 mm. Coefficient of venturimeter is 0.96 and specific gravity of mercury is 13.6 Calculate the following: a) Discharge of oil b) The pressure difference between the entrance section and the throat section..
