Unit description
The HM150.07 is used to investigate Bernoulli’s
law.
The measurement object is a venturi tube with 6
pressure measurement points.
The 6 static pressures are displayed on a board
with 6 water pressure gauges.
All rights reserved G.U.N.T. Gerätebau GmbH, Barsbüttel
The overall pressure can also be measured at
various locations in the venturi tube and indicated
on a second water pressure gauge.
Measurement is by way of a probe which can be
moved axially with respect to the venturi tube. The
probe is sealed by way of a compression gland.
Water is supplied either from the HM150 Fluid
Mechanics Basic Module or from the laboratory
mains.
The HM150 enables a closed water circuit to be
constructed.

HM150.07 Bernoulli’s Theorem
Demonstration Apparatus
ATTENTION! The experimental set-up should
be arranged absolutely plane to avoid falsification of measurement results (use of spirit level
recommended).
All rights reserved G.U.N.T. Gerätebau GmbH, Barsbüttel
For taking pressure measurements, the volumetric
tank of the HM150 must be empty and the outlet
cock open, as otherwise the delivery head of the
pump will change as the water level in the volumetric tank increases.
This results in fluctuating pressure conditions. A
constant pump delivery pressure is important with
low flow rates to prevent biasing of the measurement results.
80 mm
The zero of the single pressure gauge is 80 mm
below that of the 6-fold pressure gauge. Allowance
is to be made for this fact when reading the pressure level and performing calculations.
Both ball cocks must be reset whenever the flow
changes to ensure that the measured pressures
are within the display ranges.

Multiplying the reference velocity values with a

points of the venturi tube.
At constant flow rate, the starting value for calculating the theoretical velocity is found as:

The table makes allowance for the following relationships.
Calculation of dynamic pressure head:
hdyn. = htot.− 80mm − hstat.
80 mm must be subtracted, as there is a zero-point
difference of 80 mm between the pressure gauges.
The velocity wmeas was calculated from the dynamic pressure

is fullfilled at every point in the venturi tube.
Furthermore, it becomes clear, that there is a slight
overall pressure loss in the venturi tube.

Determination of Flow Rate Factor
A venturi tube can be used for flow rate measurements. In comparison with orifice or nozzle, there
is a far more smaller pressure loss during measurements of flow rate. The pressure loss ∆p between largest and smallest diameter of the tube is
used as measure for the flow rate:
∆p::

.
V = K⋅√
∆ p
The flow rate factor K is generally made available
for the user by the manufacturer of a venturi tube.
If the flow rate factor is unknown, it can be determined from the pressure loss ∆p::
