C3. An oil of specific gravity 0.81 is flowing through a horizontal venturimeter fitted to a 260 mm diameter pipe at the rate of 104 liters/s and throat diameter is 80 mm. The entrance and throat of the venturimeter are connected in the two limbs of a U-tube mercury manometer. The difference in mercury level shows 783 mm. Calculate (i) the head difference in m of oil, (ii) the theoretical discharge in m³/s, (iii) the actual discharge in m³/s, and (iv) the coefficient of discharge of a venturimeter. If instead of a U-tube mercury manometer, the pressure gauges are inserted at the entrance and throat of venturimeter. Find (v) the pressure at the throat in N/mm2, if the entrance pressure gauge shows0.15 N/mm?.

C3. An oil of specific gravity 0.81 is flowing through a horizontal venturimeter fitted to a
260 mm diameter pipe at the rate of 104 liters/s and throat diameter is 80 mm. The
entrance and throat of the venturimeter are connected in the two limbs of a U-tube
mercury manometer. The difference in mercury level shows 783 mm. Calculate (i) the
head difference in m of oil, (ii) the theoretical discharge in m/s, (ii) the actual discharge
in m3/s, and (iv) the coefficient of discharge of a venturimeter. If instead of a U-tube
mercury manometer, the pressure gauges are inserted at the entrance and throat of
venturimeter. Find (v) the pressure at the throat in N/mm2, if the entrance pressure gauge
shows0.15 N/mm2.
