Question

A venturimeter is a device used for measuring the:
1. pressure developed inside the pipe
2. head loss in a piping system
3. rate of flow of fluid flowing through a pipe
4. efficiency of the pumping system
5. friction loss in a pipe system

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : rate of flow of fluid flowing through a pipe

Explanation

• A Venturimeter is a device used to measure the flow rate of fluid through pipes.
• This device is based on the principle of Bernoulli’s equation.
• Bernoulli's principle was discovered by Swiss physicist Daniel Bernoulli.
• Bernoulli's principle states that as a fluid moves around an object, it creates different pressure on that object.
