Solution

Venturimeter:

  1. A venturimeter is a device that measures the rate of flow of fluid through a pipe.
  2. The venturi meter's operation is based on Bernoulli's equation.
  3. The flow equation for a venturi metre is derived from three equations: Bernoulli's equation, conservation of energy equation, and continuity equation.
  4. Rate of discharge is Qactual=cdA1A22ghA12-A22. Here, Q is the theoretical discharge, A1 is the area at the convergent section,A2is the area at divergent section, gis the acceleration due to gravity ,h is the height.

Venturimeter is a device used to measure the rate of flow of fluid flowing through a pipe.
