(Bernoulli/continuity/Pitot tube) Two Pitot tubes and two static pressure taps are placed in the pipe contraction shown in the figure below. The flowing fluid is water, and viscous effects are negligible. Determine the two manometer readings, h and H. Air V =2.2 ft/s 6.2 in. 3.7 in. SG = 1.10 h = ft
Theory and Design for Mechanical Measurements
Measurement is a term that refers to analyzing a manufactured component regarding the degree of accuracy for dimensions, tolerances, geometric profile, roundness, flatness, smoothness, etc. Measurement always involves comparing the manufactured component or the prototype with a standard specimen whose dimensions and other parameters are assumed to be perfect and do not undergo changes with respect to time.Precisely in mechanical engineering the branch that deals with the application of scientific principles for measurements is known as metrology. The domain of metrology in general deals with various measurements like mechanical, chemical, thermodynamic, physical, and biological measurements. In mechanical engineering, the measurements are limited to mechanical specific such as length, mass, surface profile, flatness, roundness, viscosity, heat transfer, etc.
Basic principles of engineering metrology
Metrology is described as the science of measurement, precision, and accuracy. In other words, it is a method of measurement based on units and predefined standards.
Please help solve the question shown. I was able to figure out the first part (answer is zero) but the second part I don't know how to solve. I attempted it four times and typed 0.3ft, 0.3367ft, 0.00204ft, and 0.003542ft but it keeps saying that those are all incorrect. Can you please show how to get the correct answer so I can understand how to solve it? Thank you!
