A venturi meter with a throat diameter of 100 mm is fitted in a vertical pipeline of 200 mm diameter with oil of specific gravity 0.88 flowing upwards at a rate of 0.06 m-3 s'1. The venturi meter coefficient is 0.96. Two pressure gauges calibrated in kilo newtons per square metre are fitted at tapping points, one at the throat and the other in the inlet pipe 320 mm below the throat. The difference between the two gauge pressure readings is 28 kN/m-3. Working from Bernoulli's equation determine the difference in level in the two limbs of a mercury manometer if it is connected to the tapping points and the connecting pipes are filled with the same oil

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.
