Question

Air (1.2 kg/m3) passes through the Venturi tube, and the heavier liquid in the U-shaped part is water (1000 kg/m3).
The Venturi tube is made of 1-inch and 1⁄2-inch PVC pipe, with inside diameters of 1.049 and 0.622 inches, respectively. What is the speed of the air passing through the wide (larger diameter) part of the Venturi tube?

(Take the height difference value h = 6 inches)

In a "Venturi tube" or "Venturi flow meter" a fluid passes through a wide and a narrow
region. The different flow speeds cause a pressure difference, which is seen in the
height difference of the heavier fluid in the U-shaped section (no flow occurs in the U-
shaped part).
Air (1.2 kg/m) passes through the
Venturi tube, and the heavier liquid in the
U-shaped part is water (1000 kg/m³).
The Venturi tube is made of 1-inch and
½-inch PVC pipe, with inside diameters
of 1.049 and 0.622 inches, respectively.
What is the speed of the air passing
through the wide (larger diameter) part of
the Venturi tube?
