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....
(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...
fluid Q1: A venture meter is fitted in a pipe of 30 cm diameter inclined at 40° to the horizontal to measure the flow rate of petrol having a specific gravity of 0.8. The ratio of areas of main pipe and throat is 5 and the throat is at 1 m from the inlet along its length. The difference in manometer head is 40 mm of mercury. Assuming the coefficient of discharge as 0.96. Calculate the discharge through the venture...
The required water flow rate in the 6 cm diameter 30-meter long circular pipe in the diagram below is 12 liters per second. The water temperature is 4 °C and the flow discharges into the atmosphere at a pressure of PB = 100 kPa. The flow is fully developed turbulent flow and there is no elevation change. The surface of the wall has become degraded due to pitting and deposits such that there is a surface roughness with a height...
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...
