18.A venture meter is a device that uses a constriction in a flow system to measure the velocity of flow, Figure 12 illustrate one type design. If the main pipe section is a standard hydraulic copper tube having a 100-mm outside diameter x 3.5-mm wall thickness, compute the volume flow rate when the velocity there is 3.0 m/s. Then, for that volume flow rate, specify the required size of throat section that would make the velocity there at least 15.0 m/s.
2. The diameter of a pipe at the larger end is 0.5 cm and at the smaller end is 0.2 cm, the larger and
smaller ends are located 7 meters and 3 meters, respectively, from a datum line. If at the larger end,
the velocity is 1.2 meters per second and the pressure is 5200 kN/m², compute the pressure at the
smaller and the volume flow rate in liters per minute.
