FLOW MEASUREMENT (Venturi meter‚ Orifice Plate and Rotameter) OBJECTIVES To study the characteristics and applications of various flow measuring device (venturi meter & orifice plate). To calculate the volume flow rate of water from the pressure difference of both venturi and orifice devices. To compare between theoretical and actual volumetric flow rate through the discharge coefficient concept. To know how rotameter works. INTRODUCTION The measurement of fluid flow is important in applications

“Eat some more food.” Everyone surrounding me was telling me to eat more and more. Aunties‚ uncles‚ and cousins that I never even knew I had were telling me to eat. Even though I was already full‚ I picked up another plate and started to eat again. Every time I go to a Filipino party‚ I find myself eating more and more. Growing up Filipino‚ I have always been accustomed to going to a big Filipino family party at least once a month. Usually‚ my family would all get together at an auntie or uncles

the Earth ’s continents relative to each other. The hypothesis that continents ’drift ’ was first put forward by Abraham Ortelius in 1596 and was fully developed by Alfred Wegener in 1912. However‚ it was not until the development of the theory of plate tectonics in the 1960s‚ that a sufficientgeological explanation of that movement was found. |Contents | | [hide] | |1 History

Millions of years ago Pangaea is what was believed to be‚ and now has evidence to support‚ the first continent on earth. It is referred to as the super continent as all existing continents were connected to it. In Greek‚ Pangaea is defined as “all the earth”; the man who came up with theory was Alfred Wegener. Wegener had a PhD in astronomy but always had an interest in geoscience. “Wegener was browsing in the university library when he came across a scientific paper that listed fossils of identical
