A venturimeter is: efully designed pressure difference is a measure of flow volume rate in a pipe. Using Bernoulli's equation for steady, incompressible flow with no loses, show that the flow rate is related to the manometer reading 2gh(p_ - p) h by Q =- where pm is the density of the manometer fluid.
An incompressible fluid is flowing at a steady rate in a horizontal pipe. From a section, the pipe divides into two horizontal parallel pipes of diameters di and d2 (where d₁ = 4d₂) that run for a distance of L each and then again join back to a pipe of the original size. For both the parallel pipes, assume the head loss due to friction only and the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor to be the same. The velocity ratio between the bigger and the smaller branched pipes is
An orifice meter is a device used to determine the flow velocity and flow rate in a pipe. The meter is connected to a U-tube manometer shown in Figure 2(a). The meter is connected to a U-tube manometer shown in Figure 2(b). Derive the equation for the flow rate, Q in the horizontal pipe.
