- The Venturi meter shown in the sketch below, contracts the flow down to one quarter of its original area. Cold air at 0 deg C flows in the pipe through the Venturi meter. The velocity of the air upstream of the Venturi meter is equal to 40 ft/s and the pressure at the same point is equal to 30 psia. What is the manometer reading if the fluid of the manometer is water with density 1000 kg/m3 .
