For steady flow, the work Conservation of energy requires that the change in done must equal the change in mechanical energy. energy equals the work done on the system.

Starting with the Bernoulli eqn from before: irrotational flow, and velocity is derived from velocity potential: PS1 + PV1 = PS 2 + PV 2 + losses + ΔPht • Because there is no change in height and a well designed venturi will have small losses (<~2%) We can simplify this to: PS1 + PS 2 = PV 2 + PV1 or − ΔPS = ΔPV • Applying the continuity condition (incompressible flow) to get: 2(P − P ) V S1 S 2 1 = 2 A2 ρ1− 2 A1 Venturi Meter VP Measurement upstream downstream SUCTION SIDE, INLET PRESSURE SIDE, OUTLET Ps <0, PT <0, PV >0 Ps >0, PT >0, PV >0 P1 P2 2(P − P ) F V C S1 S 2 A 1 = e 2 N A2 ρ1− 2 A1 • Discharge Coefficient Ce corrects for losses = f(Re) PT - Ps = (Ps + PV)- Ps = PV 3 Pitot tube END HERE The static and Pitot tube are often combined into the one-piece Pitot- static tube.
