A venturi meter is used to measure the flow rate of water at 55 degrees Celsius. The venturi meter has a throat diameter of 75mm, and it is situated in a 250-mm pipeline. A mercury (SG = 13.6) manometer measures the pressure difference, and the reading is 24 mm. Determine a.) the Reynolds number of the flow, b.) the average velocity, c) the volumetric flow rate, and d.) the power loss if 12% of the pressure drop is permanently lost

Fluid Dynamics

The study of the flow of gases and liquids, usually in and around solid surfaces, is known as fluid dynamics in physics and engineering. Fluid dynamics, for example, can be used to evaluate the movement of air through an airplane wing or the surface of a vehicle. It can also be used in ship design to increase the speed at which ships pass through water.
