Question
Water at 30°C flow in a Venturi meter with
the velocity 3 m/s. The tube diameter at
station 1 is D1 = 30 cm and the pressure-
gauge reading P1 = 30 kPa. The whole
arrangement is horizontal at 2 km altitude.
Neglect losses. The cavitation is about to
appear at station 2, determine:
P1 = 30 kPa
At 2 km altitude
Di = 30 cm
V= 3 m/s
Flow
Water at 30°C
1.Atmospheric pressure at 2 km altitude (kPa)
2.The pressure at station 2 (kPa)
3.The diameter at station 2 (m)
