CHAPTER 9: FLUID MEASUREMENT

PROBLEM 1: A venturimeter is fitted in a pipe of 30 cm diameter inclined at 40° to


the horizontal to measure the flow rate of petrol having a specific gravity of 0.8.
The ratio of areas of main pipe and throat is 5 and the throat is at 1 m from the
inlet along its length. The difference in manometer head is 40 mm of mercury.
Assuming the coefficient of discharge as 0.96. Calculate the discharge through the
venturimeter and the pressure difference between the throat and the entry point
of the venturimeter.

PROBLEM 2: Water is discharged through a 15 cm diameter orifice in the vertical
side of an open tank at the rate of 190 liters per second. Water stands 15 m above
the centerline of the orifice. A point on the jet measured from the vena contract
has co-ordinates 5 m horizontal and 0.5 m vertical. Find the hydraulic coefficients
Cv, Cc and Cd of the orifice.

PROBLEM 3: A venturimeter is used to measure liquid flow rate of 7500 litres per
minute. The difference in pressure across the venturimeter is equivalent to 8 m of
the flowing liquid. The pipe diameter is 19 cm. Calculate the throat diameter of
the venturimeter. Assume the coefficient of discharge for the venturimeter as
0.96.

fitted in an open tank is 6 m/s under a head of 3 m. If the discharge measured in a
collecting tank is 0.020 m3/s, calculate the coefficient of velocity, coefficient of
contraction and the theoretical discharge through the orifice.
