What does a double tube manometer measure?

A double tube manometer measure pressure. Manometers use liquid in a column and balance it against the pressure that they are measuring.

What is compound manometer?

Compound Manometer is an 'U' Tube manometer having 'T' joints at appropriate equal elevation in the columns of U tube manometer where the impulse lines are to be connected to measure Differential Pressure. T joint allows the use Two liquids simultaneously in the manometer. i.e. the liquid who's differential pressure is to be measured being lighter it will gauge at the top and a heavier liquid which does not dissolve with the lighter fluid will gauge at the bottom. Elevation difference in lighter liquid as well as heavier liquids gives their respective differential pressure. Both the differential pressure will be equal in terms of Pressure Units. Since two liquids are used simultaneously this type of U tube manometer is called Compound Manometer.


What is the difference between a manometer and a pitot?

A manometer is a device for measuring pressures, especially the word is used for pressure meters that are constructed to use a liquid in a transparent U-tube. A peizometer is specifically about measuring pressures in ground water wells.


How do you calculate differential heights in a U tube manometer?

A diffrntial u tube manometer is a long bent tube whos both ends r conctd at points in a pipe where presure is to b measurd.Take d reading in d first tube h1 in mm n do similarly in secnd tube n its h2. Den d differential head wil b h1-h2.

Why U-tube is inverted in inverted differential manometer?

when the fluid is flowing on the pipe which is lying on the ground then we cannot install ordinary manometer to measure the pressure, that's why we use inverted u tube manometer in such case.


What is the change in a manometer with relation to a change in pressure of gas?

As the Pressure of the gas being measured increases the height of the fluid in the Manometer Tube increases. The reverse is also true. The graduations of the Manometer Tube gives you a reading of the Gas Pressure being measured.
