Page 4: Introduction
Pitot tubes, the Venturi Apparatus allows the quantitative study and verifica- tion of the Continuity Equation, Bernoulli’s principle, and the Venturi effect. The model ME-8598 Venturi Apparatus includes the connectors and tubing needed for doing the experiment with either air or water. This manual contains complete experiment instructions, including several options for fluid supply and flow-rate mea- surement. -
