An orifice meter with coefficient of discharge Cd1 = 0.61 is replaced by a venturimeter with Cd2 = 0.98 in a pipeline carrying crude oil. The throat diameter of the venturimeter is equal to the orifice diameter. For the same volumetric flow rate, the ratio of the pressure drop across the venturimeter (ΔPv) to that across the orifice meter (ΔPo) is given by:
- 1(0.98)2(0.61)2
- 20.980.61
- 3(0.61)2(0.98)2✓
- 40.610.98
Correct answer
(0.61)2(0.98)2
