- Two parallel tubes, both filled with water at room temperature, need to join to become a single tube. The problem is that the pressure switch stopped working, and thus the pressure regulation was impaired. The plant process engineer suggested that the following system be installed in order to determine the pressure difference between the pipes. What is the pressure difference between the tubes?
