PROBLEM 3: A venturi meter with a
throat diameter of 6 cm is fitted in a
horizontal pipeline of 12 cm diameter
with oil of specific gravity 0.88
flowing from left to the right. The
difference in level in the two limbs of
a mercury manometer connected to
the tapping points read 12 cm and
the connecting pipes are filled with
the same oil.
6-cm-dia.

(a) If two pressure gauges are
fitted at tapping points, one at
the throat and the other in the
inlet. Determine the difference
between the 2 gage pressure
readings in kPa. *
Your answer
(b) Determine the flow in
m^3/s neglecting head losses.
