ABSTRACT
The Bernoulli’s law states that if an incompressible fluid flows through different sizes
of pipes, the fluid velocity changes. This change creates different forces and
pressures on the pipe’s cross-section area. The objective of this experiment is to
demonstrate the Bernoulli’s theorem. This experiment use the Bernoulli’s Theorem
Demonstration Unit which contains many part such as venture meter, manometer
tube, pump and water tank equipped with pump water controller, water host and
tubes. During the experiment, water is fed through a hose connector and the flow
rate can be adjust at the flow regulator valve at the outlet of the test section. The
venture can be demonstrated as a means of flow measurement and the discharge
coefficient can be determined. The pressure level and velocity reading for part A to E
of the tube is recorded. From Bernoulli theory, the relation between the increase and
decrease in the pressure value is inversely proportional to its velocity. Thus, the
Bernoulli’s theorem is accepted. The experiment was successfully done and the
objectives was achieved.
