Q.4 (b) Recommend the low cost flow meter used in industries for measuring flow that provides negligible loss of head in the pipeline. Discuss its construction and working. A venturi tube of throat diameter 10 cm is placed in a pipe of diameter 20 cm. The volumetric flow rate through the venturi tube is 0.02 m3/ sec. [Given: viscosity of water 10-3 Pas]. Determine the Reynolds number and the upstream to throat differential pressure developed.

Fluid Materials

In general terms, anything that flows can be termed as a fluid. In other words, a fluid is any substance that cannot resist shear forces and deforms continuously under the application of external shear forces. Fluid materials differ completely from solid materials such as metals and alloys. For instance, if we consider two infinitesimally small cross-sectional areas of fluid materials and solid materials, and apply shear forces to these elements, both the elements will undergo deformation. Upon releasing the shear force, the element of the solid materials will regain its original orientation, but the element of the fluid materials will keep on deforming continuously under the action of the shear force.
