A pipe inclined at 45° to the horizontal (Fig. 2) converges over a length l of 2 m from a diameterd1 of 200 mm to a diameter d2 of 100 mm at the upper end. Oil of relative density 0.9 flowsthrough the pipe at a mean velocity ?̅1 at the lower end of 2 m/s. Find the pressure differenceacross the 2 m length ignoring any loss of energy, and the difference in level that would beshown on a mercury manometer connected across this length. The relative density of mercury is 13.6 and the leads to the manometer arefilled with the oil.

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.

In the benzene plant, the pressure drop at some point of a pipeline in which benzene is passing through is measured with a U-tube manometer (Rm,1) as 10 cm (1stsituation). The manometer fluid is carbon tetrachloride(CCl4). Then, in order to avoid CCl4 poisoning, it is decided to add a layer of water to both arms of manometer (2nd situation). So, 4 cm of water is added to the left arm and 8 cm of water is added to right arm. In this newsituation, what will be the height difference of manometer fluid (CCl4) between the arms of the manometer (Rm,2)?Data: ρbenzene=876 kg/m3, ρwater=997 kg/m3, ρCCl4=1587 kg/m3
