Venturi relation is one of the applications of ___________(a) Light equation(b) Bernoulli’s equation(c) Speed equation(d) Equation of continuity |
|
Answer» The correct choice is (b) Bernoulli’s equation Explanation: The flow speed of a fluid can be measured using a device such as a Venturi meter or an orifice plate, which can be placed into a pipeline to reduce the diameter of the flow. For a horizontal device, the continuity equation shows that for an incompressible fluid, the reduction in diameter will cause an increase in the fluid flow speed. Subsequently, Bernoulli’s principle then shows that there must be a decrease in the pressure in the reduced diameter region. This phenomenon is known as the Venturi effect. |
