A.
The discharge through a venturimeter depends upon ?p only and is independent of orientation of the meter |
|
B.
A venturimeter with a given gage difference discharges at a greater rate, when the flow is vertically downward through it, than when the flow is vertically upward |
|
C.
For a given pressure difference, the discharge of gas is greater through a venturimeter, when compressibility is taken into account, than when it is neglected |
|
D.
The overall pressure loss is the same in a given pipe line, whether a venturimeter or a nozzle with the same throat dia is used |
