A horizontal tunnel tapers an Area of 75m² to 32m". flow rate of the air be if the pressure difference between the tapers is 15kPa? Assume there are no frictional losses and that the density of air is 1.2kg/m². Some of the flow is diverted from the wind tunnel into a venturi which tapers from diameter of 50mm to 25mm. Given that the head of pressure 78mm, calculate the flow rate.
