The formula to calculate the Sensitivity is:
\[ S = \frac{1}{\sin(\Theta)} \]
Sensitivity of an inclined manometer is a measure of its responsiveness to changes in pressure. The angle (Θ) is the angle between the inclined manometer tube and the surface.
Let's assume the following value:
Using the formula:
\[ S = \frac{1}{\sin(0.610865238197901)} = 1.74344679562138 \text{ W} \]
| Angle (Θ) | Sensitivity (S) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 rad | 2.085829642933 W |
| 0.6 rad | 1.771032196688 W |
| 0.7 rad | 1.552270326957 W |
| 0.8 rad | 1.394007819389 W |
| 0.9 rad | 1.276606213459 W |
| 1 rad | 1.188395105778 W |
