A Venturimeter having a diameter of 75 mm at the throat and 150 mm diameter at the enlarged end is installed in a horizontal pipeline 150 mm diameter carrying an oil of specific gravity 0.9. The difference in pressure head between the enlarged end and the throat recorded by a U-tube manometer is 175 mm of mercury. Determine the discharge through the pipe. Assume the coefficient of discharge of the meter is 0.97.
