'In Figure P2.4.9, water is flowing in pipe A and oil (sp. gr: = 0.82) is flowing in pipe B. If mercury is used as the manometer liquid, determine the pressure difference between A and Bin psi. 32 in. 12 in. 20 in: Manometer liquid Figure P2.4.9'

Step 1
First, we need to find the pressure difference in terms of the height of the manometer liquid (mercury). The height difference between the two sides of the manometer is 20 inches. Show more…

The pipes at A and B contain oil, and the inclined-tube manometer at 60° is filled with oil and mercury as shown in Figure Q2. Determine the pressure difference between A and B. Take the density of oil and mercury as Po = 920 kg/m^3 and PHg = 13550 kg/m^3, respectively.

Water flows through a pipe reducer as shown in the figure. The static pressures at (1) and (2) are measured by the inverted U-tube manometer containing oil of specific gravity SG-0.8. Determine the manometer reading h.
Problem 2 [15 Marks] The pressure difference between an oil pipe and water pipe is measured by a double-fluid manometer, as shown in Fig. 2. For the given fluid heights and specific gravities, calculate the pressure difference. ΔP = PB - PA Water SG = 1.0 Glycerin SG = 1.26 Oil SG = 0.88 55 cm 10 cm 12 cm 20 cm Mercury SG = 13.5 Figure 2
