Pharmaceutical engineering - 3rd semester Topic - Flow of fluids
Flow of fluids
★ May be definds as it is behaviour of fluids (liquid, gas). Which flow in open condition that do not permanently resist destortion.
Manometer-;
★ It is a device of instrument which is used to measure pressure difference.
Types of manometer-
(1.) Simple manometer
(a.) U tube manometer
(b.) Piezometer
(c.) Single column manometer
• Verticle single column manometer
• Inclined single column manometer
(2.) Differential manometer
(a.) U tube differential manometer
(b.) Inverted U- tube differential manometer
Simple manometer-; Simple manometer are made up glass tubes . One end of those remain open to the atmosphere and the other hand are collected to the point were pressure to be measure.
Principle-;
★ It were one of the principle of hydrostatic equilibrium and is used for measuring pressure ( static pressure).
★ Exceded by a stil liquid or gas , hydrostatic equilibrium state that the pressure at any point in a fluid at rest is equal end its value is just the weight of the over living fluids .
★ The manometer is the simplest instrument for gauge pressure low range pressure instrument alaning the pressure against the weight of a column in liquid.
★ The action of are manometer depend on effect of pressure exerted by a fluid at the depth.
Advantage-;
★ Simple and time proven.
★ High accuracy and sensitivity.
★ Fill fluids of varying specific gravity.
★ It have reasonable for.
★ Suitable for low pressure and low differential pressure application.
