    Calculating Pressure and Velocity in a Venturi Meter Setup

    Homework Statement A pair of vertical, open-ended glass tubes inserted into a horizontal pipe are often used together to measure flow velocity in the pipe, a configuration called a Venturi meter. Consider such an arrangement with a horizontal pipe carrying fluid of density p.The fluid rises to...

    Understanding Venturi Pump: Calculating Fluid Flow and Suction Speed

    Homework Statement on a venturi pump the fluid, air or water move through a narrow tube and increases speed and also decreases pressure. Now I have read before that the dynamic pressure and the static pressure are added to get the total pressure. How fast does the fluid have to flow to create...

    Flow Rate in Venturi Meter: .03825 L/s

    Homework Statement Known/Given Water flows through a Venturi meter (mercury [density=13.6E3 kg/m^3] in the manometer). Pipe size: 10.0cm diameter Constriction size: 5.6cm diameter Height difference of mercury: 2.3cmUnknown - Flow Rate (L/s)Homework Equations Bernoulli's - P1 + (1/2)*d*V1^2 = P2...

    Solving a Venturi Device for Height of Mercury Rise

    A Venturi device has a diameter of 4mm at one end and a diameter of 2cm at the other. Air enters at 1200cm^3/m. Mercury is in the botom of the device. Assuming mercury's density to be 13700kg/m^3, and air's density to be 1.2kg/m^3, find how high the mercury rises. Assume air to be an ideal...

    How to Calculate Volume Flow Rate Using a Venturi Meter

    these are the following data: diameter(pipe)=0.1m diameter(throat)=0.05m difference in pressure=55kpa Cd=0.98 question requires me to find the volume flow rate. 1)i know i need to find h(diff in pressure/density*gravity) i have a doubt here where can i just leave the pressure in kpa...
