Flow in a venturi meter refers to the rate at which a fluid passes through the device. The flow of fluid is measured by the pressure difference created between the converging and diverging sections of the venturi meter. This pressure difference is directly related to the flow rate of the fluid passing through the venturi meter.

How do you measure the flow?
Flow can be measured using instruments such as flow meters or by calculating flow rate using the formula Q = A * V, where Q is the flow rate, A is the cross-sectional area of the flow, and V is the velocity of the fluid. Measuring devices like mass flow meters, ultrasonic flow meters, and electromagnetic flow meters are commonly used for measuring flow in various industries.
What is the stream function for an incompressible flow and how is it used to describe the flow properties?
The stream function for an incompressible flow is a mathematical function that helps describe the flow properties by showing the flow direction and velocity at any point in the flow field. It is used to visualize and analyze the flow patterns and streamline shapes in the flow field.
What is the definition of steady and unsteady flow of fluid?
What is a continuous flow and unsteady flow
Difference between uniform and non-uniform flow of fluid?
Uniform flow occurs when the fluid velocity and properties are constant throughout the flow field, while non-uniform flow has varying velocity and properties across the flow field. In uniform flow, streamlines are parallel and the flow is steady, whereas in non-uniform flow, streamlines may converge or diverge and the flow can be unsteady.
Steady flow and non steady examples?
Steady flow: Water flowing through a pipe at a constant rate with uniform velocity is an example of steady flow. Non-steady flow: Waves in the ocean where the water motion is constantly changing in both intensity and direction represent non-steady flow.
Why venturimeter is called venturimeter?
Because, the scientist name VENTURI had discover that device as flow measurment. So that it call as venturimeter.
What are the applications of venturimeter?
Measurement of flow rate in a pipe
What is the use of venturimeter in daily life?
to measure the flow in any pipes
What is the principle of working venturimeter?
What is the working principle of venturimeter?
What is the use of venturimeter?
Venturimeter is the short pipe having two conical parts and portion of uniform cross section between these two parts.
What instrument measures pressure in the pipe?
Venturimeter
Is there any instrument that can give how much water is flowing in a minute through 1 pipe at normal atmospheric condition?
venturimeter, orificemeter are some of the instruments used to measure the flow rate in pipe.
Will there be any flow variations if a venturimeter inlet outlet connections is reversed?
Yes, reversing the inlet and outlet connections of a venturi meter will result in flow measurement errors. The design of the venturi meter relies on the inlet and outlet connections being in a specific orientation to accurately measure fluid flow rates. Reversing the connections disrupts the flow dynamics and can lead to inaccurate readings.
What is venturi meter?
A Venturi meter is a device used to measure the flow rate of fluids in a pipeline. It consists of a converging section followed by a throat and then a diverging section. The pressure difference between the converging and throat sections is used to determine the flow rate of the fluid passing through the device.
Why is the coefficient of discharge of a venturimeter calculated?
The coefficient of discharge of a venturi meter is calculated to account for any discrepancies between the theoretical flow rate and the actual flow rate. It helps in correcting for losses due to friction and other factors in the fluid flow, and ensures accurate measurement of the flow rate through the venturi meter.
Why the diverging angle is smaller than converging angle for a venturimeter?
If the angle is greater than that, the pressure increases too quickly and the adverse pressure gradient will cause flow separation along the walls. By keeping the angle small, the flow remains attached and behaves nicely.
Why isn't a venturimeter used commonly for measuring discharge in residential building?
