Question
a) Discuss the different types of manometers with an example.
b) The manometer with one of the arms open to the atmosphere is used to measure the pressure
of a natural gas pipeline, as shown in Figure b. By calculating the local atmospheric
pressure, determine the
i) Show the formula for finding pressure in the pipeline.
ii) The pressure of the natural gas pipeline. Note: Values of a, b, c and d can be assumed.
iii) If the height of the air column was made to be longer, would there be a significant
difference in the result? Justify with calculation.
iv) If the fluid inside the pipeline is replaced with water, will the pressure be similar?
Validate with calculation.
