Abstract: Properties of liquid flowing through a Venturi tube, operating characteristics of the Venturi tube, geometry of the Venturi tube, and correlation between Reynolds number and coefficient of discharge for the Venturi tube are used to determine a flow rate of liquid or liquid/liquid mixture in the Venturi tube. Determination of the Reynolds number is reiterated to increase the accuracy of the liquid flow rate measurement in the Venturi tube. The liquid flow rate in the Venturi tube is monitored to control the liquid flow.
