Question
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 (1st situation). 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 new
situation, what will be the height difference of manometer fluid (CCl4) between the arms of the manometer
(Rm,2)?
Data: rbenzene=876 kg/m3
, rwater=997 kg/m3
, rCCl4=1587 kg/m3
