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 gravity of mercury is 13.6. H20 18 in 2 15 in Hg (A) 3.70 ft3 /sec (B) 6.29 ft3 /sec (C) 8.62 ft3 /sec (D) 10.5 ft3/secAns. 6.29 ft3/s (B)

    A venturi meter with a diameter of 30 cm at the entrance and 15 cm at the throat, is connected to a vertical pipe of diameter 30cm carrying oil of specific gravity 0.9. The difference in elevation of the throat section and the entrance of the venturi meter is 30 cm. The mercury manometer shows a gauge deflection of x = 1000mm. Determine 1) the discharge of oil; and 2) the pressure difference between the entrance section and throat section....
