A horizontal Venturi meter has diameter at inlet and throat of 24" and 18”, respectively. A differential gage connected to inlet and throat contains water that is deflected 4" when air flows through the meter. Considering the specific weight of air to be constant at 0.0800 lb/ft³ and neglecting friction, determine the flow in cfs. Ans. 276cfs
