Gasoline (sp.gr, 0.8) is flowing upward through a vertical pipeline which tapers from 300 mm to 150 mm diameter. A gasoline mercury differential manometer is connected between 300 mm and 150 mm pipe section to measure the rate of flow. The distance between the manometer tapings is 1 m and gauging reading is 500 mm of mercury. Find (i) Differential gauge reading in terms of gasoline head, and (ii) Rate of flow. Neglect friction and other losses between tapings.
