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 =...
Prob5 A venture meter having a throat diameter of 150 mm is installed in a horizontal 300-mm-diameter water main, as shown in figure below. The discharge coefficient, C = 0.982. Determine the difference in level of the mercury columns of differential manometer attached to the Venturi meter if discharge is 0.142 m/s. Flog Mercury
(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...
Venturi meter provided in a vertical pipeline carries oil of specific gravity 0.88 as shown in the Figure below. The diameter at the entrance and throat are 30 cm and 15 cm, respectively. A U-tube manometer filled with mercury of density 13600kg/m3 is connected to the entrance and throat of the meter . The height difference between the throat and entrance is 30cm. if the actual flow rate is 80 L/s and the coefficient of discharge of the meter is...
Ans. 6.29 ft3/s (B) 5./ A venturi meter with a diameter of 6 in at the oat is installed in an 18 in water main. A differential manometer gauge is partly filled with mercury (the re- mainder of the tube is filled with water) and connected to the meter at the throat and inlet. The mercury col- umn stands 15 in higher in one leg than in the other. Neglecting friction, what is the flow through the meter? The specific...
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)
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...
Open with Google Docs ▼ Question 3 Calculate the flow rate of water in a pipe of 30 cm diameter placed in an inclined position where a venturi meter is inserted, having a throat diameter of 15 cm. The difference of pressure between the main and throat is measured by a liquid of s.g. 0.6 in an inverted U-tube which gives a reading of 30 cm. The loss of head between the main and throat is 0.2 times the kinetic...
