Investigation of Mass Flow Rate in Venturimeter Using CFD Analysis

Abstract

Venturimeter is a device which is used for measuring rate of flow of fluid flowing through pipes. The application of these are found in Aviation, Automotive,chemical, petro chemical industries, etc. In automotive industry venturimeter is used to measure the fuel and air distribution in carburetor. In this work dynamic flow analysis is to be carried by varying inlet diameter of venturimeter such as 25mm, 30mm and 35mm. Theoretical calculations are to be done for mass flow rate of air. The obtained theoretical values are to be compared with ANSYSvalues. By varying the inlet pressure the mass flow rates of Al2O3, water and air passing through various diameters of Venturimeter are to be calculated. In this work Unigraphics software is used for modeling of venturimeters with inlet diameters of 25 mm, 30mm and 35mm. FEA software ANSYS is used for calculating mass flow rate values for venturimeters.
