A flow nozzle equipped with a differential pressure gage is used to measure the flow rate of water at 10°C (p 9997 kg/m3 and p 1.307 x 10-3 kg/m s) through a 3-cm-diameter horizontal pipe. The nozzle exit diameter is 1.5 cm, and the measured pressure drop is 3.3 kPa. Determine the volume flow rate of water, the average velocity through the pipe, and the head loss 1.5 cm Differential pressure gage -3 m3(s m/s The volume flow rate of...
A vertical Venturi meter equipped with a differential U-tube manometer as shown in Figure , is used to measure the flow rate of liquid propane at 10°C (p = 514.7 kg/m3) flowing through a 'd1' mm diameter vertical pipe. For a discharge coefficient of 'cd', determine the actual volume flow rate of propane through the pipe with the given data. Pipe dia., d1 = Throat dia., d2 = Vertical dist., Y1 = Vertical dist., Y2 = Disch. Coeff., Cd =...
A venturi meter is used to measure the flow speed of a fluid in a pipe. The meter is connected between two sections of the pipe (Fig. 14-55); the cross-sectional area A of the entrance and exit of the meter matches the pipe's cross-sectional area. Between the entrance and exit, the fluid flows from the pipe with speed V and then through a narrow ''throat'' of cross-sectional area a with speed v. A manometer connects the wider portion of the...
A venturi meter was installed in a pipe to measure the flow of the water inside. The inlet diameter of the venturi is 25.4mm and the throat diameter is 12.7mm. Determine the actual flow rate in gpm if the throat Reynolds number is 10^5. The density and viscosity of the fluid is 62.4 Ibm/ft^3 and 3.511kg/m-hr, respectively. The venturi coefficient of discharge is 0.95.( do include unit/s in your answer and use two decimal places)

PROBLEM 2 = Water flows through a Venturi meter, as shown in Figure 1. The pressure of the water in the pipe supports columns of water that differ in height by L = 25 cm. The atmospheric pressure is Patm 101.3 kPa, the specific volume of water is v = 0.001 mº kg-1, and the acceleration of gravity is g = 9.81 ms-2. Patm = 101,3 kPa 8 = 9.8 m/s?

An orifice meter with a 2 inch diameter opening is used to measure the flow rate of water through a horizontal 3 inch diameter pipe. A mercury manometer is used to measure the pressure difference across the orifice. If the differential height of the manometer is 7 inches, determine the volumetric flowrate (gal/min) of water through the pipe. You may assume the discharge coefficient is 0.6.
(c) A venturi meter is mounted in a pipeline of diameter 150 mm, which is inclined at 30° from the horizontal. Water is flowing upwards through the pipeline. The throat diameter of the venturi meter is 90 mm. One static pressure tapping is located at the throat and another 0.3 m upstream in the pipeline. The pressure difference measured between the two tappings is 200 mm of mercury. The coefficient of discharge for the meter is 0.97. Determine the actual...
A flow rate meter is used to measure the flow rate of a water flow from left to right) in an inclined position. Due to spatial confinement, the two pressure taps-manometer tubes were inclined as well as shown. The meter is similar to a Venturi meter except at the small pipe the pressure tap is a stagnation pressure tap at 2. For the given geometries, calculate: 1) (4 pts)The velocity at the large pipe, in m/s 2) (3 pts)The velocity...
A Venturi flowmeter is used to measure the flow rate of water (see the figure below). The flowmeter is inserted in a water pipe that has a diameter of 2 cm. At the narrow section, the diameter of the pipe is 0.8 cm. The U-tube contains oil with density 0.85 g/cm3. If the difference in the oil level on the two sides of the flowmeter is 1.5 cm, what is the volume flow rate of water through the pipe? The...
