Find the throat diameter of a Venturi meter when fitted to a horizontal pipe 10 cm diameter having a discharge of 20lit/s. The differential U-tube mercury manometer, shows a deflection giving a reading of 60 cm, Ca 0.98. In case, this Venturi meter is introduced in a vertical pipe, with the water flowing upwards, find the difference in the reading of mercury gauge. The dimensions of pipe and Venturi meter remain unaltered, as well as the discharge through the pipe.

Find the throat diameter of a Venturi meter when fitted to a horizontal pipe 10 cm
diameter having a discharge of 20lit/s. The differential U-tube mercury manometer,
shows a deflection giving a reading of 60 cm, Ca = 0.98. In case, this Venturi meter is
introduced in a vertical pipe, with the water flowing upwards, find the difference in the
reading of mercury gauge. The dimensions of pipe and Venturi meter remain unaltered,
as well as the discharge through the pipe.
