Question
Q.3 (a) A 30 cm x 15 cm venturimeter is provided in a vertical pipe line carrying oil of
specific gravity 0.9, the flow being upwards. The difference in elevation of the throat
section and entrance section of the venturimeter is 30 cm. The differential U-tube
mercury manometer shows a gauge deflection of 25 cm. Calculate:
(i) the discharge of oil, and
(ii) the pressure difference between the entrance section and the throat section. Take
the co-efficient of discharge as 0.98 and specific gravity of mercury as 13.6.
