Fluid Statics Pressure Difference Measurement
in a Pipeline
PROBLEM:
In order to measure the pressure difference between
two points in a pipeline carrying water, an inverted U-
tube is connected to the points, and air under
atmospheric pressure is entrapped in the upper portion
of the U-tube. If the manometer deflection is 0.8 m and
the downstream tapping is 0.5 m below the upstream
point, find the pressure difference between the two
points.
