This video provides some explanation behind how a u-tube manometer works, as well as a worked example to find the pressure in a pipe by reading the manometer.

The simplest form of manometer consists of a U-shaped glass tube containing liquid. It is used to measure gauge pressure and are the primary instruments used in the workshop for calibration.

Pressure measuring devices using liquid columns in vertical or inclined tubes are called manometers. One of the most common is the water filled u-tube manometer used to measure pressure difference in pitot or orifices located in the airflow in air handling or ventilation system.

A U-tube manometer is a simple device for measuring fluid pressure. It consists of a U-shaped tube filled with a liquid, and the pressure difference between the two arms of the U-tube is determined by the difference in the levels of the liquid in each arm.

Oct 1, 2001 · One of the earliest pressure measuring instruments is still in wide use today because of its inherent accuracy and simplicity of operation. It's the U-tube manometer, which is a U-shaped glass tube partially filled with liquid. This …

It explains how to calculate the height of the oil column as well as the height of the water. In addition, it explains how to calculate the density of an unknown fluid using a u-tube...

Hi, i created this video to give you a quick, easy explanation of a practical apparatus arrangement, to set up a U-Tube Manometer by yourself, and how to measure pressure difference. Its...

Jan 24, 2025 · The simplest pressure measurement method involves balancing the unknown pressure against the pressure produced by a column of liquid of known density using an instrument such as the U-tube manometer. U-tube manometers consist of ‘U’ shaped glass tubes partially filled with a liquid as shown below:

Aug 14, 2021 · U-tube manometer is a simple mano metric device used to measure pressure at a point in a fluid, by balancing the fluid column by the same or another column of fluid. It has a glass tube bent in “U” shape with some amount of same or other type of fluid, called mano metric fluid like mercury, oil, water.

The U-tube manometer principle is that when we apply pressure to be measured to one side of the tube produces a movement of liquid. The U-tube manometer has a U-shaped glass tube and a measuring scale.
