Venturi And Orifice Meter Apparatus

Venturimeter & Orificemeter Apparatus
 


 
The apparatus consists of two pipelines emerging out from a common manifold. One pipeline contain a Venturimeter and other contain an Orifice. The pressure tapings from the Venturimeter and Orificemeter are taken to differential manometer to measure pressure difference. The Venturimeter & Orificemeter are connected in parallel and anyone of them can be put in operation by operating valves provided at the downstream. These valves can also regulate the flow.
 

 
 
Present set-up is self-contained water re-circulating unit, provided with a sump tank and a centrifugal pump. Flow control valve and by-pass valve are fitted in water line to conduct the experiment on different flow rates. Flow rate of water is measured with the help of measuring tank and stopwatch.
 

 
EXPERIMENTS:
 

 

To determine the co-efficient of discharged through Venturimeter and orifice meter.
 
To measure discharge through Venturimeter and Orificemeter as flow meters.
