U-Tube Manometer equation Calculator

Calculate Pressure using U-Tube Manometer









Formula

The formula to calculate the Pressure is:

\[ P_a = (\gamma_m \cdot h_m) - (\gamma_1 \cdot h_1) \]

Definition

Pressure a is pressure at a point a. Specific Weight of Manometer liquid is used in calculating the U-tube manometer equation. Height of manometer liquid present in the manometer tube. Specific weight 1 is the specific weight of the fluid 1. Height of column 1 is the length of the column1 measured from bottom to Top.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ P_a = (500 \cdot 0.075) - (1342 \cdot 0.122) = -126.224 \text{ Pa} \]
