The inlet and throat diameters of a horizontal venturimeter are 30 cm and 10 cm respectively. The liquid flowing through the meter is water. The pressure intensity at inlet is 13.734 N/cm² while the vacuum pressure head at the throat is 37 cm of mercury. a) Calculate the rate of flow, assume that 4% of the differential head is lost between the inlet and throat. b) Calculate the value of Ca for the venturimeter.

The inlet and throat diameters of a horizontal venturimeter are 30 cm and 10 cm
respectively. The liquid flowing through the meter is water. The pressure intensity at
inlet is 13.734 N/cm² while the vacuum pressure head at the throat is 37 cm of
mercury.
a) Calculate the rate of flow, assume that 4% of the differential head is lost
between the inlet and throat.
b) Calculate the value of Ca for the venturimeter.
