Venturimeter.

What Is a Venturimeter? High pressure Low pressure connection 1 s• Standard r Loro form.

Parts of a Venturimeter 1. 3. 1 Converging part 2. Throat Diverging part 2 3 2 Di vergent Convergent Throat Parts of a Venturirneter.

The working of venturimeter is based on the principle of Bernoulli’s equation..

Q is the theoretical discharges under ideal conditions. The actual discharge will be less than the theoretical discharge. The actual discharges are given by the formula.

Disadvantages of Venturimeter : The venturimeter , however, has some disadvantages, and they are stated below: The installation cost of a venturi meter is high. There are some difficulties during maintenance. This device cannot be used where the pipe has a small diameter of 76.2 mm. Non-linear. This system occupies more space than the orifice meter ..

Applications of Venturimeter : . In the industrial sector, it is used to determine the pressure of the volume of gas and liquid inside a pipe. The flow of chemicals in pipelines. It is widely used in the waste treatment process, where larger diameter pipes are used. It is also used in the medical field to measure the rate of blood flow in the arteries. It is also used where high-pressure recovery is required ..
