A 300 mm x 150 mm venturimeter is provided in a vertical pipeline carrying oil of specific gravity 0.9, flow being upward. The difference in elevation of the throat section and entrance section of the venturimeter is 300 mm. The differential U-tube mercury manometer shows a gauge deflection of 250 mm. Calculate: The discharge of oil, and i) ii) The pressure difference between the entrance section and the throat section. Take Cd-0.98 and specific gravity of mercury as 13.6.
