HYDRAULICS LABORATORY LABORATORY NO.4 2. The experimental results show that there is a pressure drop across the meter from inlet to outlet, and this pressure drop increases with discharge. Would there be any disadvantages in using this pressure drop rather than that between the inlet and the throat for the purpose of calibrating the meter? Why?
