A Venturi meter is being used to determine the flow of soyabean oil at 65°C in a pipe. The particular pipe is 15 cm in diameter, which decreases to 6 cm in the throat of the Venturi. If the differential pressure is measured as 14 cm of water, estimate the flow rate of the soyabean oil. (Assume the soyabean density at 65 oC is 910 kg/m3, and Venturi coefficient is 0.95)

A Venturi meter is being used to determine the
flow of soyabean oil at 65°C in a pipe. The
particular pipe is 15 cm in diameter, which
decreases to 6 cm in the throat of the Venturi. If
the differential pressure is measured as 14 cm of
water, estimate the flow rate of the soyabean oil.
