A storm culvert pipe of 30m has an incoming flow rate of 1210560 litres an hour....
An engineer has recently driven his car into a culvert during a storm and has completely damaged his car. In an effort to ensure that this does not happen again, he wants to petition to the town’s council to redesign the culvert to appropriately accommodate the storm design flowrate of 4 m3/s. The headwater depth should be 2 m and the tailwater depth should be no greater than the height of his car (1 m), the length of culvert is...

A Venturi meter equipped with a differential pressure gage is used to measure the flow rate of water at 15°C (p = 999.1 kg/m”) through a 5-cm- diameter horizontal pipe. The diameter of the Venturi neck is 3 cm, and the measured pressure drop is 5.1 kPa. Taking the discharge coefficient to be 0.98, determine the volume flow rate of water and the average velocity through the pipe. 5 cm 3 cm Differential pressure gage Is The volume flow rate...
A venturi meter was installed in a pipe to measure the flow of the water inside. The inlet diameter of the venturi is 25.4mm and the throat diameter is 12.7mm. Determine the actual flow rate in gpm if the throat Reynolds number is 10^5. The density and viscosity of the fluid is 62.4 Ibm/ft^3 and 3.511kg/m-hr, respectively. The venturi coefficient of discharge is 0.95.( do include unit/s in your answer and use two decimal places)
