Question

A 300 mm x 150 mm venturi meter is provided in a vertical pipeline carrying oil of specific gravity 0.9, flowing upward. The difference in elevation of the throat section and entrance section of the venturi meter is 300 mm. The differential U – tube manometer shows a gauge deflection of 250 mm. Calculate i) The discharge of oil ii) The pressure difference between entrance and throat section. Take: coefficient of discharge of venturi meter is 0.98.

Step 1

- Diameter of the entrance section (D1) = 300 mm = 0.3 m - Diameter of the throat section (D2) = 150 mm = 0.15 m - Specific gravity of oil (S) = 0.9 - Difference in elevation between throat and entrance section (h) = 300 mm = 0.3 m - Differential U-tube manometer Show more…
