A venturi meter with a throat diameter of 6 cm is fitted in a horizontal pipeline of 12 cm diameter with oil of specific gravity 0.88 flowing from left to the right. The difference in level in the two limbs of a mercury manometer connected to the tapping points read 12 cm and the connecting pipes are filled with the same oil. (a) If two pressure gauges are fitted at tapping points, one at the throat and the other in the inlet. Determine the difference between the 2 gage pressure readings in kPa. (b) Determine the flow in m^3/s neglecting head losses.

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.
