Unit I Flow of fluids: types of manometers, Reynold's number and its significance, Bernoulli’s theorem and its applications, energy losses, orifice meter, venturi meter, pitot tube and rotameter. Mixing: objectives, applications and factors affecting mixing, difference between solid and liquid mixing, mechanism of solid mixing, liquids mixing and semisolids mixing, double cone blender, twin shell blender, ribbon blender, sigma blade mixer, planetary mixers, propellers, turbines, paddles and silverson emulsifier Flow of fluids: Text & Reference Books Therefore Pressure difference is directly proportional to height difference and expressed in terms of height (in units) and often called as HEAD Simple Manometer measure pressure at a point in a fluid contained in a pipe or a vessel Applications of Simple Manometer 1. Measuring the consumption of gas in the chemical reaction 2. Used in conjuction with flow meters for measurement of fluid flow. E.g with orifice and venturi meter and pitot tube. Differential Manometer measure the difference of pressure between any two points in a pipe or a vessel containing fluid  PRACTICE QUESTION If Reynolds number is 1700, then the nature of flow is?
