The head loss
may be assumed to arise as a consequence of vorticity in the steam. Because
the flow is viscous a wall shear stress exists and a pressure force must be applied to overcome it.
The consequent increase in flow work appears as an increase in internal energy, and because the
flow is viscous, the velocity profile at any section is non-uniform. The kinetic energy per unit
V2
2g
mass at any section is greater then
and Bernoullis equation incorrectly assesses this term.
The fluid mechanics entailed in all but the very simplest internal flow problem are too complex
to permit the head loss H to be determined by any other means than experimental. Since a
contraction of stream boundaries can be shown (with incompressible fluid) to increase flow
uniformity and a divergence correspondingly decrease it, H is typically negligibly small
between the ends of a contracting dust but is normally significant when the dust walls diverge.
Procedure:
When the experiment has been set up as described in installation and preparation procedure,
measurement can be taken in the following manner:
1. The apparatus valve was opened until the rotameter showed a reading of approximately
10mm. When a steady flow was maintained and the flow was measured with the
Hydraulic Bench. During this period, the reading of the manometers was recorded.
2. This procedure was repeated for a number of equidistant values of rotameter reading up
to the point in which the maximum pressure values can be recorded from the manometer.

So, Qtheoretical = Av = 201.1/1000000 x 2.15 = 4.325 x 10-4 m3/s
Compare with Qactual:
Error percentage

Discharge:
Discharge Q = Volume of water flow out / time:
Q = V (m3) / t(s)
Q = 0.005 / 12.51 = 3.994 x 10-4 m3/s
Q = Cross section Area x velocity of flowing fluid:
Velocity of flowing fluid V = Q / A
VA = 3.994 x 10-4 / (530.9/1000000) = 0.752 m/s
From the continuity:
V A A A =V B A B
VB = 3.994 x 10-4 / (201.1 /1000000) = 1.986 m/s
From Bernoullis equation:

In venturi meter, potential head is same due to height is same, Za = Zb and all multiply g .

Substitute PA, PB, VA, and VB into Bernoullis equation:
So, H= 289.981
Head loss = 289.981 / (1000 x 9.81) = 0.0295 m

Conclusion:
In conclusion, I have observed that the venture meter has the best control to the fluid. Its
discharge coefficient is little different from unity and the head loss it offers is minimal. The
venturi meter, the orifice plate meter and the rotameter are all dependent upon Bernoullis
equation for their principle of operation. However, when the velocity is very low the head loss
remains the same and so becomes many, many time the kinetic head.
