1. A venturi meter is used for measuring flow of water along a pipe.The diameter of the Venturi throat is two fifths the diameter of the pipe.The inlet and throat are connected by water filled tubes to a mercury U-tube manometer. The velocity of flow along the pipe is found to be 2.5h reading in meters of mercury. Determine the loss of head between inlet and throat of the Venturi when H is 8.49m. (Relative density of mercury is 13.6).

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

To determine the loss of head between the inlet and throat of the Venturi meter we can apply the Bernoulli equation between the two points along the s... View the full answer
