  2. Venturi effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venturi_effect

    Video of a Venturi meter used in a lab experiment Idealized flow in a Venturi tube. The Venturi effect is the reduction in fluid pressure that results when a moving fluid speeds up as it flows from one section of a pipe to a smaller section. The Venturi effect is named after its discoverer, the 18th-century Italian physicist Giovanni Battista ...

  3. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

    A Venturi meter constricts the flow in some fashion, and pressure sensors measure the differential pressure before and within the constriction. This method is widely used to measure flow rate in the transmission of gas through pipelines, and has been used since Roman Empire times. The coefficient of discharge of

  4. Venturi flume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venturi_flume

    In hydrology, a Venturi flume is a device used for measuring the rate of flow of a liquid in situations with large flow rates, such as a river. [1] It is based on the Venturi effect, for which it is named. [2] It was first developed by V.M. Cone in Fort Collins, Colorado. [3] The Venturi flume consists of a flume with a constricted section in ...

  5. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    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.

  6. Parshall flume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parshall_flume

    A venturi flume is similar to the Parshall flume, without the contoured base, but the cross section is usually rectangular, the inlet shorter, and there is a general taper on the outlet similar to the venturi meter. [14]

  7. Dynamic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_pressure

    A flow of air through a venturi meter, showing the columns connected in a U-shape (a manometer) and partially filled with water.The meter is "read" as a differential pressure head in cm or inches of water and is equivalent to the difference in velocity head.
