FLULD FLOW OPERESAN [ MICRO PROJECT ]
•Fluid enters from the bottom of the tapered tube, then some of
the fluid strikes directly into the float bottom and others pass
aside the float. Now the float experience two forces in opposite
direction, darg force upward and gravitational force downward.
Fluid flow moves the float upward againstgravity. At some
point, the flowing area reaches point where the
pressure-induced force on the floating body exactly matches the
weight of the float. The float wil find equilibrium when the area
around float generates enough drag equal to weight –
buoyancy.
•As the float weight and gravity are constant, oat displaced
upward is
distance the proportional to the flow velocity of the fluid
passing through the tapered tube.
• WORKING
CASE-1: When flow is high (high velocity measurement).
In this case the float is pulled in upward direction.
When this float or gravity pull will balance the
push, then float will be in equilibrium.
Then we can get reading from the graduated scale
and the flow will get outside in regular way
