In a venturimeter, the diverging angle is smaller than the converging angle to ensure smooth and efficient fluid flow. A smaller diverging angle helps minimize flow separation and turbulence as the fluid exits the venturi, promoting a streamlined transition back to the wider section. Conversely, a larger converging angle allows the fluid to accelerate without causing excessive pressure loss. This design maximizes measurement accuracy and overall efficiency in fluid dynamics.
It can be bigger or smaller, but not equal to.

The following are the main parts and areas of venture meter:The entry of the venture is cylindrical in shape to match the size of the pipe through which fluid flows. This enables the venture to be fitted to the pipe.After the entry, there is a converging conical section with an included angle of 19' to 23'.Following the converging section, there is a cylindrical section with minimum area called as the throat.After the throat, there is a diverging conical section with an included angle of 5' to 15'.Openings are provided at the entry and throat (at sections 1 and 2 in the diagram) of the venture meter for attaching a differential pressure sensor (u-tube manometer, differential pressure gauge, etc) as shown in diagram.
A ray that emerges from the right side of a lens, after passing through it, will always refract according to the lens's shape and the laws of refraction. For a converging lens, the outgoing ray will bend towards the focal point on the opposite side. In contrast, a diverging lens will cause the ray to diverge away from the focal point on the opposite side. Regardless of the lens type, the angle of refraction will depend on the angle of incidence and the refractive indices involved.
If the angle is greater than that, the pressure increases too quickly and the adverse pressure gradient will cause flow separation along the walls. By keeping the angle small, the flow remains attached and behaves nicely.
When light strikes a mirror, it undergoes reflection, bouncing off at the same angle it struck the mirror. When this reflected light then passes through a hand lens, it is refracted (bent) due to the curvature of the lens, converging or diverging based on the shape and focal length of the lens.
The divergent angle of a venturimeter is designed to be lesser than that of the convergent part to minimize flow separation and turbulence as the fluid exits. A gentler angle in the divergent section allows for a smoother transition from high velocity to low velocity, reducing pressure losses and ensuring accurate measurements. This design helps maintain continuous flow and improves the efficiency of the fluid measurement process.
It is because from the point of view of the driver, the virtual image created by the convex (diverging) mirror subtends a smaller angle than a plane mirror.
acute angle
A angle that is smaller than 90 degrees is an acute angle.
No. You can only make the angle smaller by moving the arms closer together so they create a smaller angle. Shortening the arms of an angle will keep the angle the same. However, you could make the angle smaller anddd shorten the arms if you would like, but making the arms shorter is not what makes the angle smaller.
An angle smaller than a right angle - is an acute angle. Larger than a right angle, but smaller than 180 degrees is an obtuse angle. Angles between 180 and 360 degrees are reflex angles.
