The expression at 4:17 is V=sqrt((2*(p2-p1))/rho)). The expression for p2-p1 is obtained from Bernoulli's equation applied on the manometer liquid and replaced here. So, Bernoulli's equation is P1+(1/2)*rho*V1^2 + rho *g *h1 = P2+(1/2)*rho*V2^2 + rho *g *h2. Since V1=V2=0 as liquid inside the manometer is stationary. So we can further write P1+ rho * g * h1 = P2+ rho *g *h2. P2 - P2 = rho * g *(h1-h2) we can write, h1-h2 = delta h delta h = (P2 - P1)/ (rho *g) Replacing P2 - P1 in the expression of velocity we get V=sqrt((2 * delta h * rho_l *g)/rho)) I hope it gets clear now.
Good video and fair explanation. But that's only half. There are no numbers as example, it's just a bunch of formula conversions. Some examples of rho, p2 and p1 would complete the tutorial on how to calculate fluid/gas speed travelling through the pipe.
Yes. In the pipe flow, I have shown stagnation pressure greater than static pressure. I think you have commented about the last part of the video where stagnation pressure and static pressure boxes of a pitot tube are shown of the same size. The boxes just show the two pressure chambers not their magnitude or value.
Thank you very much, sir, for replying to my question. My confusion was about point 2 actually. Because all the fluid inside the pitot tube is in static equilibrium and does not move, and so point 2 isn't moving either. But then i remembered that in other problems, for example when draining a large tank we also apply the Bernulli equation between a point that's not moving( at the top) and a point that is moving(at the outlet).
@@captainamericawhyso5917 Yes. You are right. At a point, inside a flowing fluid, the fluid may come to rest but still you can apply Bernoulli's equation.
I don't think accelerometers can be used instead of pitot tubes for velocity measurement in aircrafts. Because aircrafts are not always moving in a straight direction, they sometimes go up and down due to which the angle of attack of air on the aircraft can change and the stagnation point moves as the aircraft angle of attack changes. But the pitot tube front opening always hits the stagnation point so it can measure the correct velocity. Since accelerometers are kind of inertial instruments that measure acceleration using the force acting on the aircraft skin, the air will apply different force on different part of aircraft depending on the angle of attack. So it may give wrong value of aircraft velocity. So pitot tube is still in use.
@@ENGINEERINGSTREAMLINED Okay, but I got this question after realising that our smartphones use accelerometers and using that they show velocity on google maps I guess (I guess using integration and other algorithms)... So that's why the question. And also, can't we use 3 axis accelerometers and gyroscopes for better understanding with proper sensitive data excluding body vibrations and all...?
@@rohanshinde9575I think your question was very interesting and innovative thinking. But I am not an expert in accelerometers. So from my knowledge, I think it is not feasible for any accelerometer to measure correct velocity for any fast moving object especially which are rapidly changing orientation. The accelerometer can gauge the orientation of a stationary item with relation to Earth's surface. When accelerating in a particular direction, the accelerometer is unable to distinguish between that and the acceleration provided through Earth's gravitational pull. Using a three-axis accelerometer one could identify the orientation of a platform relative to the Earth's surface. However, once that platform begins moving, its readings become more complicated to interpret. For example, in a free fall, the accelerometer would show zero acceleration. In an aircraft performing a 60-degree angle of bank for a turn, a three-axis accelerometer would register a 2-G vertical acceleration, ignoring the tilt entirely. Ultimately, an accelerometer cannot be used alone to assist in keeping aircrafts properly oriented. As far as I know, gyroscopes are used in rockets but mostly for inertial stability and to maintain its trajectory. You can go to this link for more knowledge www.livescience.com/40103-accelerometer-vs-gyroscope.html
@@ENGINEERINGSTREAMLINED About the free-fall example, can't we use two or combinations of accelerometers like one is fixed for 1g and the other for zero-g acceleration at one reference point which is a standalone point. Also, found this wiki article fascinating on the inertial nav system- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_navigation_system for a detailed comparison, can search the term 'pressure' on the webpage... They mentioned some errors in numerical integration under the drift rate section...
@@rohanshinde9575 I read the Pressure Reference System form the wikipedia page. It seems to be promising but still this system mainly depends on data from sensors and as mentioned, the data from sensors can cause errors due to environmental parameters such as temperature effects, engine vibrations, etc. So maybe in future if all these errors are taken care of then this type of system will be used in aircrafts. So currently, the industry is going with the most reliable way to measure the velocity that is pitot tube.

The direction of wind should be towards the pitot tube. For example if the pitot tube is on a aircraft and the aircraft is moving from right to left. Then the air will enter the pitot tube from left to right.

Please make all videos of fluid mechanics

How do you go from the expression at 4:17 to the one at 4:30 with delta h defined?
The expression at 4:17 is V=sqrt((2*(p2-p1))/rho)). The expression for p2-p1 is obtained from Bernoulli's equation applied on the manometer liquid and replaced here. So, Bernoulli's equation is P1+(1/2)*rho*V1^2 + rho *g *h1 = P2+(1/2)*rho*V2^2 + rho *g *h2.
Since V1=V2=0 as liquid inside the manometer is stationary.
So we can further write
P1+ rho * g * h1 = P2+ rho *g *h2.
P2 - P2 = rho * g *(h1-h2)
we can write, h1-h2 = delta h
delta h = (P2 - P1)/ (rho *g)
Replacing P2 - P1 in the expression of velocity we get
V=sqrt((2 * delta h * rho_l *g)/rho))
I hope it gets clear now.
@@ENGINEERINGSTREAMLINED thank you, I fully understand now
if I enter the pressure in HPa which unit do I get? thanks a lot!
You should convert the pressure from Hpa (hecto pascal) to Pascal and then use it.
Good video and fair explanation. But that's only half. There are no numbers as example, it's just a bunch of formula conversions. Some examples of rho, p2 and p1 would complete the tutorial on how to calculate fluid/gas speed travelling through the pipe.

Isn't bernoulli's equation about a moving fluid inside a pipe? How do we take the equation between 1 and 2?
In the video, Bernoulli's equation is applied at points 1 and 2 which are inside a pipe with a fluid flowing through it.

but what about the direction of the wind? it should be in the opposite direction of the pitot tube head? I'm confused or maybe it's a dumb question 🥴
The direction of wind should be towards the pitot tube. For example if the pitot tube is on a aircraft and the aircraft is moving from right to left. Then the air will enter the pitot tube from left to right.
Use Relative speed concept of speed of air and speed of plane
But why those are used at aeroplane... You didn't tell that🤔
Pitot tubes are used on airplanes as speedometers to measure their speed.
Thanks for sharing, I found this interesting
